Hi @busso,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Forums! 🙂 I see you are getting a Reflash error message on the control panel of your HP Deskjet 3520.You have tried to reset it but it did not help.

 

Take a quick look at the steps below and let me know if this made any changes?

 

1. Unplug the printer while it is powered on

2. Press and hold the cancel button while you plug the power cable back into the printer

3. Continue to hold the cancel button for 15 to 30 seconds

 

I will watch for your reply.
