Hi @Deoor,

Welcome to the HP Support Community

I understand you are facing an Instant Ink issue with your HP Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

Let's perform a power drain: 

• With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Remove USB cable, if present.
• Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
• Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
• Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

If the issue persists, then please follow the below steps:

Restart the computer, printer, and router

• To resolve many connectivity issues, restart the computer, printer, and router.
• NOTE: The following steps temporarily disconnect network and Internet connections, and require restarting your computer. Complete any tasks or downloads in progress before you continue.
• Turn off the router by pressing the power button or disconnecting the power cord.
• Turn off the printer.
• Close all running programs on your computer, and then shut down the computer.
• Press the power button or reconnect the power cord to the router, and then wait for the Internet activity light to display a normal connected status.
• Turn on the printer.
• Turn on the computer.
• Try to turn on Web Services.
• If the issue persists, continue to the next step.

Let's disable webservices and re-enable it

• Touch on the wifi icon ((i)) on the printer, and take down the IP address
• Open a web browser (ex Chrome or Mozilla) and type in the printer's IP
• click on webservices and remove webservices and re-enable it

Hope this helps!
