I can't install my cartridge in my Deskjet 3512.
Turn the printer on.
Load paper into the paper input tray.
Open the cartridge door (located on the front of the printer), look for the recessed area, grab the built in handle (part of the recessed area) and pull forward.
Once the door is open, the cartridges will automatically move to the center position.
To change a cartridge, pull the top, front of the cartridge down, it will move to a 45 deg position. Then just pull out.
Open the new cartridge box, take the cartridge out of the wrapper, pull the tab to remove the tape covering the electrical contacts, (make certain you don't touch the contacts or ink nozzles), install the new cartridge (color on left, black on right), slide it into the holder and press up on the top, back until it latches into place. Then close the door.
The printer will print a test page. Once printed, take the alignment page it printed and put on the scanner glass (corner to top, right, see the guide printed there). Close the scanner lid and press the OK on the control panel. the printer will now align the print heads based on the page it printed. Once done, press OK again. Done.
