Printer cartridge for HP Photosmart 7520

I bought a new HP Photosmart 7520. When changing the photo black inkt cartridge I used one of the catridges I bought some time ago for my former printer. The cartridge is from the 364 series, the production date (?) stamped on the box reads IRELAND Oct 2010. The printer does not accept the cartridge displaying an error message which (translated from Dutch) reads: Incompatible older generation cartridge installed. Does this mean that I have to through away the 364 cartridges I still have left?

Hello there, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience

I hope this helps clear up any confusion.

Printer Driver for HP Photosmart 7520 for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and 10.3 and 10.5

I just purchased a new HP Photosmart 7520 printer. One of my Macs at home is an iMac G5 that is running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. It connects to the HP printer via Wi-Fi. HP does not provide drivers for Mac OS 10.4 for the Photosmart 7520 printer. I tried all sorts of old HP drivers and finally found one that worked, so I figured I would post here to help out anyone else who is trying to solve the same problem. The driver download you need is the OS 10.4 driver for the Photosmart C7250 All-In-One printer. Here is the link to the download page:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-55650-2 &cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=3382185&sw_lang=
After downloading and installing the drivers, I ran the HP Printer Setup Utility. It was not able to detect my printer. I had to go to System Preferences on my Mac and add the printer manually in the Print & Fax control panel. The Print & Fax control panel was not able to auto-select the correct driver to use, so I selected "HP" from the "Print Using" drop-down list, and then selected "HP Photosmart D7400 Series" from the "Model" list. That worked for me. Good luck!
According to the driver download page, this driver will work for Mac OS X v10.3.9, v10.4 and v10.5

Thank you very much, I just bought this printer without paying attention to the compatibility of my Imac. Thanks to you, I just install it without too much difficulty. Thank you again.
Merci beaucoup, je viens d'acheter cette imprimante sans faire attention à la compatibilité de mon Imac. Grace à vous, je viens de l'installer sans trop de difficulté. Encore merci.

Setup cartridge for the Photosmart 7520.

My question is about the setup cartridge. After the initial setup, do you leave that cartridge in or take it out? When I check my ink levels, it's the only one that shows LOW....is that normal?

Hi,
The setup cartridges are sent to initialize the printer when you install it for the first time. And these are complimentary cartridges sent along with the printer so it won't have much of ink compared to a normal ink cartridges and it is perfectly fine and use the cartridges until it is completed out.
Thanks.

I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit.

I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit—it's too wide. Yet the User Manual I downloaded from HP (helpfully called c02983796) clearly shows an illustration of the XL cartridge fitting in the printer. Advice?
This question was solved.

Hi,
The HP 364 XL Black ink cartridge been updated in September 2010.
Take a look in the following document:

If your ink cartridge is the older ink cartridge you shoulf contact the retailer to replace it.

Cartridge problems HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One Printer

I have replaced all of my ink cartridges with genuine HP cartridges. I keep getting an error message that says that one or more of my cartridges are either damaged or missing. I also cleaned all of my printer heads. Amy suggestions?

Hi DF5, Does the error message indicate a particular cartridge as having the problem? Did you get the error message as soon as you replaced your cartridges? If there is a particular cartridge that is causing the error try replacing it with your old cartridge if you still have it. This will indicate if the problem is solely with the cartridge. If the old cartridge works check the metal contact area on the back of your cartridge for dirt or damage (2 below). Also check the corresponding electrical contacts inside the printer (indicated by the blue arrow). If you notice any damage to the contact I would suggest that you contact HP Support for assitance. Please let me know if any of these steps help resolve your issue. Many Thanks,Francheska

How to install driver for HP photosmart 7520 on MacOSX 10.5.8???

My husband does basic printing of documents. His computer is a MAC OSX 10.5.8. We have a new HP Photosmart 7520 printer which requires 10.6 minimum.
Is it possible to get a driver for this printer for him, that will allow him to access the printer, without getting a new computer!! ?? To simply be able to print and fax and scan.. he rarely does photos.
Please Help, as of course, he is quite frustrated, and as a result, so am I!!
Thanks.

Hi grammaglenys,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you having trouble installing drivers with your printer. It is true that this printer only supports Mac OS X 10.6 as the minimum requirement for the HP Photosmart 7520.
As the Operating System is older than when the printer came out, there currently isn't a driver available. However, here is a list of printers that can be used with Mac OS X 10.5.8. Archived - Mac OS X 10.5.3: Printer drivers included in the HP Printer Driver Update v1.1.1. Or you can try upgrading the Operating System to Mac OS X 10.6.
Hope this answers your question, and have a great day!

Hi
I am looking for ICC profiles from other manufacturers for a HP Photosmart 7520. I have been searching days now and have found nothing for my printer.
Where can I find other manufacturers ICC profiles if they are available? OR if there are none profided, why?
TIA
Alex

Hi asdiaz,
I understand you have a Photosmart 7520 that you're wanting different ICC profiles for. I will do my best to guide you in this.
This isn't something that we support, but in doing a bit of research I was able to find a link to Adobe ICC Profile, and this International Color Consortium page that has a few different suggestions.
Hopefully these pages will get you in the right direction! Have a good one!

Cannot reach live chat for a Photosmart 7520 connection issue

I am trying to reach live chat for a connection issue which I dealt with last week with my Photosmart 7520. I have case number and my printer is under warrenty.

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).

Bad printing color for HP Photosmart 7150

I got the drivers for my printer installed - THANKS. I installed new unopened printer cartridges - both color & black. When I printed just a text page the black was great, but when I printed something with color PROBLEM !!! The color pictures looked like there was a line green filter over everything. You could see the colors underneath this lime green, but not easily. What can I do? I like the printer, but not with lime green colors.

I've got the same problem on my MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard and Gutenprint 5.2.5 when printing on the 7150 - it prints about 10% (and skewed at that) and spits out the page. This occurs when printing from any app.
I am only able to print in draft mode which is not suitable for anything I need to do.
I realize this printer is no longer officially supported, but any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Mike.

Do I use 454 or 454XL as my printer cartridges for my HP officeject 4622 series

Do I use 564 or 564XL for my printer cartridge on my HP officeject 4622 series. product#CZ294 A and what is the difference. Thank you

Hi there mahniya,
Welcome to the forums!
The difference between the cartridges is how much ink they hold. XL stands for eXtra Large
So going by the specifications on HP shopping, the 564 black yields approximately 250 pages (depending on what you're printing) and the XL black yields about 550 pages

Why cant i get printer cartridges for my hp deskjet 2050 j510 printer?

This is a new printer -bought for our small family business as part of HP package.
I have had many HP printers and am a loyal customer.
Few of the main printer cartridge suppliers seem to stock the cartridges for this printer.
I have never encountered this problem before.
Anyone encountered this and solved it?
I am in South East of England

Hi SEBALOGAC,
I don't know why the cartridges are hard to find in your area. Perhaps the stores are limiting their stock in these difficult economic times?
However, you can always order the cartridges online at:

Installing black print cartridge in HP Photosmart C4280

I've tried to install 3 new black cartridges. Each time I get an error message that says, "Print Cartridge Incorrectly Installed." When I replace the empty cartridge, that message disappears. I know I am installing the new ones correctly! Please HELP.

@ Gordon-B - Thanks for the response. If one has done the cleanings and the other steps listed in the above links n the last post, one would want to replace the cartridge in the printer as it might be faulty. If after one has done that; they find that the print quality is still not producing the desired results, one would be looking at product replacement.

Incorrect printer cartridge for photosmart b209a-m

Purchased a photosmart all in one B209a-m printer but the Black XL cartridges DO NOT fit!
They are the proper length and height but are much much wider than the standard black cartridge (Looking down at the top as they are standing side by side )!
Is there a hardware upgrade to accept black XL cartridges or is the HP Website lying? All the other color XL cartridges fit perfectly though. Doesn't make sense.
Help mister wizard!
This question was solved.

Good Morning!
I was so fustrated I took the printer back to "Max" where it was purchased and told that for some reason the base of the recepticle for the Black 564XL was not wide enough to accept the cartridge. HP has made a newer printer (516) that does however accept this cartridge. Now.... just to confuse the issue further... HP now makes a blackXL for my b209a-m but is the same dimensions as the standard cartridge all around. Only holds enough ink for 580 pages though. Better than the standard cartridge but not as good as the larger 564XL. Oh well... lesson learned. Maybe next year I'll get the 516 printer.
Thanks for your reply though!!! Wooo to the whooo!
Continued success in all you do!!!
