Before I set up my hp 5055, should I believe what I read; that I can not bypass the instant ink?  Should I go ahead and try to install with the cartridges included? I do not want instant ink.  

Thank you.

Hi @Kinsella

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

HP Instant Ink cartridges do not work after the end of your current billing period, and you are required to return them to HP. To continue printing after your billing cycle ends, make sure you have standard replacement ink cartridges ready to use in your printer.

 

If you do not have the postage-paid envelope provided by HP, go to Recycling HP Instant Ink Cartridges to order an envelope. 

 

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
