HP ENVY 5010 All-in-One Printer

Howdy! I bought genuine HP ink at the store for my HP ENVY 5010-All In One Printer and it’s saying it won’t print b/c it’s not an Instant Ink cartridge.  I am enrolled in the Instant Ink program but needed to print prior to receiving my first order.  How can I use the store-bought cartridges first (brand new) before I utilize the Instant Ink cartridges?  Thank you!
