As there is no posting yet for the C5280, the next best thing is to post it here for the C5180, (what the differenc e is I don't know). Anyway, I just bought the C5280, and as with ALL new printers it came with just enough ink to print about 60 pages, now the ink has run out I bought an ink refill kit, and it showed me how to refill the cartridges, they are now full, but the machine's display still shows the ink as empty, my old printer's cartridges had a chip on it, that I used a chip resetter and voila, I could print over 1,000 pages without needing to refill again, but this HP? Well, I may have to take it back and get a cheap one, then have a seperate scanner, if I can't reset the ink levels.

Check the estimated ink
levels
NOTE:
The HP All-in-One can only detect
the ink levels for genuine HP ink. The ink levels in print cartridges that are
refilled or have been used in other devices might not register accurately.
Clean the contacts
Gather the following items to clean the cartridge and
carriage:
Clean distilled water. Use bottled or filtered water if
distilled water is not available. Tap water can contain contaminants that damage
the cartridge.
Clean cotton swabs or any soft, lint-free material
that will not stick to the cartridges (coffee filters work well).
Sheets of paper or a paper towel to rest the cartridge
on during cleaning.
Open the product cover and wait until the carriage is
idle and silent.
Remove the cartridge and place it on a piece of paper
with the nozzle plate facing up.
Note:- Clean the contacts quickly so that the
cartridge is not outside of the product for more than 30 minutes. If the
cartridge is outside of the product for too long, the ink can dry and clog the
nozzles.
Unplug the product from the electrical
outlet.
Dip a swab in the clean water and squeeze it to remove
most of the moisture. The swab should be only slightly damp.
Clean the cartridge contacts.
Cautions:- Do not touch the ink
nozzles.
Figure 1:
Cartridge contacts 
Clean the contacts in the carriage, inside the
product.
Figure 2: Carriage
contacts 
Either let the cartridge sit for 10 minutes to allow
the cleaned area to dry, or use a new swab to dry it.Reinstall the cartridge.
Reconnect the product to the electrical
outlet.Close the product cover

Well, theres the problem. Most printers can remember up to three cartridges. That includes color & black. The best way to put it is that each cartridge has a"funger print" that the printer can read, and estimated ink levels can be gaged. There is a way to "reset" the cartridges, but i do not have the document on me. Please email [email protected] and I'll send it today. I'm not saying it will work 100%, as the reset method is geared for the 56/57/58, but who knows right?
SOURCE: How do I reset the ink levels?
We have an issue of missing or replace yellow cartridge. Please feel free to contact the HP support for replacement of the printer, if the printer is in warranty status. HP would replace the printer.
