Welcome to the HP Community.

 

Check the box...If found, (also) Check and read the leaflet included in the box..

 

Does the information say that

HP+ service is required to qualify for the extended Instant Ink Trial?

 

If Yes...

=====================================================================

Generally, the documents and websites do a better job explaining this...

Here goes...

First...

 

What to do?

 

  • Wait here for one of our Community agents to find your request and respond.  Not always fast - usually works.

OR

  • First, if you wish to do so:  Activate HP+ 

            Trouble? Contact HP+ Concierge Support and ask for help to register your printer with HP+

 

  • Next, if you wish to do so: Sign up for an Instant Ink subscription (trial period). 

            Trouble?  Contact Instant Ink Support in your Region.

 

 

=====================================================================

Please see the correct and latest information available at the HP+ website

 

Translation of the information at the website...

 

HP+ and the Extended Instant Ink subscription trial

 

HP+ is related to Instant Ink in the sense that signing up for HP+ provides for an Extended Trial period of the Instant Ink subscription plan,

 

 

HP+ - What is it? 

 

There are limitations, benefits, responsibilities when you choose HP+ service.

 

For example, at this writing, HP+:

  • HP+ includes an extended (longer) Warranty on your printer
  • Requires that you always use HP genuine ink cartridges in the printer - Again, this is not "Instant Ink" - the requirement is that you use HP branded ink
  • The printer must be connected to the Internet to allow monitoring by the HP+ Service
  • HP+ service includes Concierge Service - with extra setup help and assistance
