Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I'm afraid, as per this document, HP DeskJet 2620 Printers do not use HP 301 ink cartridges.
Step 1: Make sure the ink cartridges are compatible
Step 2: Make sure the ink cartridges are correctly installed
Refer to step 2 from this document
Make sure the protective plastic tape with HP logos is removed.
Step 3: Replace/Use a compatible ink cartridge
Let me know how this goes.
