Hi @Copier-Pro
The HP LaserJet Pro MFP M521dn does not include Read IRIS OCR software adn therefore the 3rd party spftware will not be activated, the READ IRIS Pro software activates automatically only when a full feature software is installed for a supported HP printer.
You may find any supported HP printer listed below:

Also Read IRIS Pro 15 is not included with your printer:
https://support.irislink.com/en-us/article/738-readiris-pro-15-for-hp-download-and-activation
Also by reviewing your printer specifications I could not see it include any IRIS Pro activation:
