Hello, my DESKJET 3630 always shows low ink even when full cartridge and only prints 10 pages before needing refill, I only use HP cartridges. How do I resolve this as it’s costing a fortune?

Is this a recurring issue? 

Have you experienced this issue with more than one ink cartridge?

Do you normally print regular documents or Photos/pictures?
