Cancellation of HP Instant ink

[Deb_5033]

I have cancelled my instant ink cartridges because I wasn't receiving any cartridges.  I had to go and buy several cartridges over the past year.  I finally decided to cancel my subscription.  It was cancelled however, I am getting an error message on my printer that my cartridge can not be used until the printer is enrolled in HP Instant ink.  I put in a new cartridge and it is me the same message.  How can I print without enrolling in the Instant Ink cartridge program.

My printer is an Envy 4520 all in one.  I tried to follow the instructions but I don't want to add the service.  I just want to be able to print on my own.  

Let me know what I need to do to be able to print without using the web service for the HP Instant Cartridge.

Removing and adding web services will normalize your printer to work with regular ink cartridges.

You do not have to re-enroll with HP Instant Ink.

Keep me posted.
