HP Deskjet 3520 series (NET) Driver

The HP Deskjet 3520 series (NET) driver helps Windows communicate with your network-connected HP Deskjet 3520 printer for printing and, with a compatible full-feature package, scanning. It is useful when setting up the device over Wi-Fi, restoring a missing printer connection, or reinstalling software after a Windows change. Although some driver listings categorize this entry as “Camera,” the Deskjet 3520 is an all-in-one printer, not a webcam.

Key Features

• Network printing support: Enables compatible Windows computers to send print jobs to the Deskjet 3520 over your local network.
• Print settings access: Provides controls for options such as paper size, orientation, and print quality, depending on the package installed.
• Scanning support: A compatible full-feature HP software package may include scanning tools; a basic driver may provide printing only.
• Windows-specific packages: Driver listings may cover Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. Check the individual package’s supported operating systems and 32-bit or 64-bit requirements before downloading.

How to Install HP Deskjet 3520 series (NET) Driver

1. Check your Windows version and system type. Match the download to your operating system and architecture. For Windows 10/11 setups, do not assume a Windows 10 package also supports Windows 11—verify compatibility first.
2. Select a trusted package. When choosing an HP Deskjet 3520 series (NET) driver download for Windows, prefer HP’s official support resources or Windows Update. Look for the latest version compatible with your system and confirm that any free download matches your device.
3. Prepare the printer. Turn it on and connect it to the same local network as your computer. Follow the printer’s wireless setup instructions if it is not connected yet.
4. Install the software. Run the downloaded installer and follow its prompts. Choose a wireless or network connection when offered, then select the detected Deskjet 3520.
5. Test the setup. Restart your computer if prompted, print a test page, and check scanning if your chosen package includes that functionality. If detection fails, confirm the network connection before retrying.

Keep the driver updated when a compatible update addresses connection problems, printing errors, or operating-system changes. Check compatibility notes before replacing a working installation, especially on older Windows versions where newer packages may no longer be supported.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or stalls: Disconnect USB, run HP Easy Start or Windows printer troubleshooter, and allow the HP driver installer through the firewall. Temporarily disable VPN/third-party security software if download or installation is blocked.
• Printer not detected on Wi-Fi: Confirm the Deskjet 3520 and PC are on the same 2.4 GHz network—the 3520 does not support 5 GHz. Print a network configuration page, reserve the printer’s IP in your router, then add it via Add Printer > TCP/IP using that IP.
• Driver/version conflicts: Remove old Deskjet 3520 and duplicate printer queues in Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners, reboot, then install the current HP full-feature driver. Avoid mixing a Windows Update driver with an HP package.
