@jpwats1, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand your HP ENVY 4520 has stopped printing from both your Mac and PC, even after installing a new cartridge. Let's go through a few steps to troubleshoot and get your printer working again.
Check Printer Status
- Make sure the printer is powered on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Mac and PC.
- On the printer's control panel, go to Wireless > Settings > Print Reports > Wireless Test Report to confirm network connectivity.
Check for Error Messages
- Look at the printer display for any error messages (e.g., “Cartridge Problem” or “Printhead Missing”).
- If you see any, try removing and reinstalling the cartridges. Make sure they are genuine HP cartridges.
Reset the Printing System (Mac)
- Go to System Settings > Printers & Scanners.
- Right-click (or Control-click) in the printer list and choose Reset printing system.
- Re-add your HP ENVY 4520 by clicking the + button.
Reinstall Printer Drivers
- Uninstall the printer software from both Mac and PC.
- Download the latest drivers from the HP ENVY 4520 support page.
Try a Test Print
- After reinstalling, try printing a test page from both devices.
Check the Cartridge
- It’s possible the new cartridge is defective. Try the old cartridge if available, or test with another new one.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
