There are two ways you can check the estimated ink levels on your device.
Check using the Printer Software:
- Double-click the HP Deskjet 3520 series desktop icon to open the Printer Software.
NOTE: You can also access the Printer Software by clicking Start > All Programs > HP > HP Deskjet 3520 series > HP Deskjet 3520 series
- In the Printer Software, click Estimated Ink Levels.
Check from the control panel
- From the Control Panel home screen, which displays Copy, Scan, and Quick Forms, select Ink Levels.
- The printer should display the current ink levels.
NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Back button until you can see it.
However, if you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
Hope this helps
Much appreciation to those who acknowledge our members for their contribution toward finding a solution.
