Hello Mr./Mrs.,
I bought a second-hand HP ENVY 5540 printer. My printer says, " Can not print. Connect the HP Instant Ink service". I don't want to subscribe to HP Instant Ink service and have enough cartridges.
How can I use this printer without a subscription?
Sincerely.

Hello Gaya1239,
Thank you very much for your support. I received your solution message, but I couldn't access it. Because HP blocked the message. So, I couldn't have any chance to try your solution. If you sent the solution more explicitly, I can try it.
Sincerely,
