I do not have an instant ink printer. My understanding is that if you run out of ink, or you cancel your subscription, you can use genuine Hewlett Packard cartridges either original or refilled. They must have an HP chip in the cartridge.
The below type is unlikely to work.

Note that this is a peer to peer forum and I am just the messenger of this bad news: Instant ink cartridges can only be used when the ink subscription is active.  

Once you use all the "setup" cartridges then you can start with the standard HP cartridges obtained anywhere.

While HP Instant Ink printers can be used with no subscription, select HP Plus printers may require a subscription to operate.

Some HP printers can use non-HP ink
