Hi,
I've got a HP Deskjet 3762, my Instant Ink subscription wasn't paid as my card expired. I've since renewed and paid the subscription but the printer hasn't recognised this and is showing a flashing amber error on the globe icon on the front of the printer.
The info page printed by the printer indicates an issue with you "hp instant ink account" and to log in for more information,
There is no information and I still cannot print, please help I cannot find any solution online!
Solved! Go to Solution.

This error occurs when a Web Services print job is blocked, or when HP Instant Ink is cancelled and a software message has not been acknowledged.
- If both the Web Services light and the HP Instant Ink icon blink and the HP Instant Ink Service has been recently cancelled, press the Information button twice to resume printing.
- If only the Web Services light blinks, an HP ePrint email print job has been blocked.

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that you are unable to connect the printer to the instant ink account, I am glad to assist you.
How is the printer connected?
Meanwhile, follow these steps to fix the issue.
Turn On Web Services
- Make sure the printer is connected to a wired (Ethernet) or wireless network with an active internet connection.
- NOTE: If you connect your printer to a computer with a USB cable, web-connected printing services do not work.
- If your printer is connected with a wired (Ethernet) connection, check the cable and the lights on the printer’s Ethernet port. The green link light should be steady, and the orange activity light should blink when the cable is connected.
- If your printer is connected with a wireless connection, make sure the wireless feature is on and the printer is connected to the same network as your computer.
- Some printers have a wireless icon and a blue light on the front of the printer. If the printer has a blue light, and the light is on and not blinking, your printer is connected.
- Print a Network configuration or Wireless Network Test Results page using button combinations on the printer control panel.
- Find the printer IP address on the printout.
- Type the printer IP address into the browser address line, and then press Enter.
- NOTE: Make sure to type the IP address into the internet browser's address box. If typed into a toolbar search box or search engine, the EWS does not open.
- If a login or certificate window displays, complete the information to finish opening the EWS.
- If a website security certificate displays, click Continue to open the EWS.
- If a login window opens, type admin for the username, and then type the PIN found on the printer UPC sticker located underneath or on the back of the printer, or the password set by the printer administrator.
- On the EWS, click the Web Services tab.
- If the tab is not available, your printer does not support Web Services.
- If a summary page displays, Web Services is already on.
- If a setup page displays, follow the prompts to turn on Web Services.
- NOTE: If you cannot turn on Web Services, make sure the printer firmware is up-to-date. For more information, go to Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware.

Hi,
Thanks for your response, however I'm still unable to connect my printer to HP Insta Ink. The error on the front (flashing globe) still exists. My printer is connected to the internet, please see screen shot:
I had no issue with this untill my lapse in card details, I'm now paying for a service I cannot use as the error will not clear. Please advise.
