I had the problem twice but just switched from black print to color and then back with the next use. It has been fine since. Good luck and hope this works for you

If you are referring to black only (in other words, the printer still prints in color) then your printer may be suffering from the known issue of black-printing-failure; this seems to be a circuit failure having nothing at all to do with the ink cartridges. You can test this by printing identical blocks of the same text in yellow, cyan, magenta and black, only. All of the color text should be fine; only the black will fail to print. At this time, there is no known fix for the problem. If your 3520 is very new, just a few months old, (i.e. still under warranty) try contacting HP for a replacement.

It's possible that your Cyan or Yellow printhead ports might be clogged. Try using a different set of full ink cartridges and then clean the heads using the printer software.

Another thing you can try, (that has worked for me when ink is so low that printer will not print, yet there's still ink in cartridge), is to place a small piece of duct or masking tape over the clear part of the cartridge. That's where/how the printer itself recognizes ink levels in the cartridges.

I don't recall if I had any issues like that or not. I'm an IT guy/computer nerd anyway so if I did, I fixed it immediately. With that said, I would recommend turning your printer off and then back on. Even try some different things like putting old cartridges in when printer is on and then turn it off, pull cartridges out and replace the new cartridges just before turning the printer back on. Make sure that any tape that may have been on the bottom of the cartridges is also removed. You'd be surprised how many people forget that. One thing to look at also, if the problem persists, is to check the settings on the actual printer and look at the ink level. If the ink level is showing that everything is full, as it should be, then the printer is at least detecting things that far. Hope this little bit will help, if not feel free to post back. If you end up having to post back, let us k ow what you be tried, and the specific issue you're having. This way I, or someone else, can give more accurate advice to further troubleshoot the issue. :)

Hmmm. . .check to see if you loaded it right? Is the ink actually printing out? Might be some missing pieces or broken pieces since they are only compatible and not the designated design. Check to see if the seller refurbished this product because most of them are.

It's a starter ink. So they aren't completely full. U should def buy back ups

I had a similar problem but it wasn't the cartridges. I emailed Brother from their support website and within about a day they got back to me and gave me some suggestions. I tried them and was back up and running. You might try using the cleaning function on your printer especially if you had let the ink go completely dry (which is not a good thing). It turned out to be dirty print heads on my machine. Hope you get your machine running soon.

I wonder the same thing too, I bought the printer for the same reason and am having the same problem, I just bought a tri pack Feb 21 and with almost no color printing it claims to be empty 4 months later. I've heard the printer priming itself from time to time especially when the computer wakes up from sleeping. I gues from now on i'll keep it off until im ready to print

All the colors should print? Maybe the head needs to be cleaned or the ink has dried up in that cartridge. Do a Test page between cleanings.

this is an old issue with epson printers. it is the printer - not the cartridge - which decides when it is empty. because third party cartridges often hold more ink, they appear to be defective. what you should try to compare is the page count. are you getting the same number of pages?

Its gonna register as empty, u have to hold down a certain button to reset the printer

I called the seller and the answer that they gave me was to just wait until the printer says the cartridge is empty then remove it and replace it. You have to physically check the cartridges to see if there is enough ink.

I received paperwork in my shipment that stated your printer will give you an "empty" notification, because the little computer chip on each cartridge will not work correctly after being remanufactured. There were also instructions on how to bypass or ignore the "ink level warning" on the printer if that warning doesn't allow the printer to print. Give it a try printing a sample page or two. My replacement cartridges have been working just fine. Good luck!

try taking the cartridge out of the printer and wipe the edge where the ink comes out with a damp tissue to get the ink flowing again; I have this problem with the color cartridge

Take them out to see if there is any ink left...and reset them that might help.....I'm not an electronic person though so I have no idea
