Just refilled the powder in my Laserjet Tank 1020w Printer, but it still shows that the ink level is low and a yellow light is being shown

Hi @Huss05,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd like to help!

 

To be able to answer you effectively, we need some information.

 

Have you checked the cartridge door for obstructions?

Did you reset the printer?

 

Step one: Close the cartridge door completely

If the cartridge door is not completely closed, the error message displays.

Open, and then close the cartridge door of the product. Make sure that the door rests securely against the body of the product.

Figure : Examples of closing the cartridge door (your product might vary)

  1. Illustration of different ways cartridge doors close.

   NOTE:

To see how to close the cartridge door of your specific model, see the cartridge section of your product's User Guide.

Check the product control panel to see if the error message still displays.

If these steps resolved the issue, there is no need to continue troubleshooting.

If the issue persists, see the next step.

Step two: Check the cartridge door for obstructions

Inspect the door and the area around it to make sure that no obstructions prevent the door from closing completely.

   NOTE:

Bits of paper, packing materials, and tape might prevent the door from closing completely.

Remove any obstructions.

Check the product control panel to see if the error message still displays.

If these steps resolved the issue, there is no need to continue troubleshooting.

If the issue persists, see the next step.

Step three: Reset the product

Press the Power button () to turn on the product.

Disconnect the USB cable from the back of the product.
