Does anyone know if you get charged for printing blank pages?  Is HP Smart smart enough to know you didn't use any ink/that you didn't really want to print a blank page but you couldn't get the software (ie. a drafting program) to print only pages 1 and 2 of a 4 page drawing...

Hi @,John_VanIsle,

 

I'd like to help!

 

I understand you would like to know if blank pages are counted as a page.

 

HP instant ink service defines a printed page as a page upon which any amount of ink is placed by your printer” Meaning if you print a page with just one line of text on it, it counts towards your monthly total.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

OK.  Makes sense to me.  Bottom line, a blank page doesn't count.
