We recently bought an Officejet Pro 7720 printer direct from the HP shop in the UK and have just installed it into our office only to find that it doesn't qualify for the Instant-Ink scheme. Naively we assumed that all HP printers were available with Instant Ink if we wanted, so perhaps you can explain why this one doesn't?

 

Thanks.

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

 

Why?

HP does not tell those of us outside of HP the why, how, where -  the decision might be based on more than one factor - possibly including the potential size of the market, the availability of postal services -- could be any reason.

 

Just checked the UK store.

 

It is true that as of this writing, the check for a compatible printer is apparently more complicated than simply looking up the printer on a chart of supported printers for the region.

 

FAQ

(Excerpted from the Instant Ink UK webpage)

Is my printer eligible for HP Instant Ink?

"Check if your printer model is eligible during printer setup or by selecting Sign Up Now at the top of this page."

 

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

That said -- and for those reading and located in this region -- the Instant Ink website (again, at this writing) does include a phone contact number you can call to ask for help, details, information.
