HP Reward Issue

[ramcomm]

I received the following message after installing a new HP ink cartridge into my Envy 5530 printer:

*Thank you for installing Genuine HP cartridges! Redeem your HP Reward! – a new, genuine HP cartridge has just been installed.

How do I get the reward?

The HP Rewards Promotion - Ended July 2017

Important:

• IF available for your printer, installing updated printer software removes the message.
• No update for you printer? Ignore the rewards message and the request to update the driver.

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

Answer:

You are likely receiving the message because the drivers for your product pre-date the end of the promotion.

Lessons learned - "Rewards" are no longer tied to the driver / software / product.  Unfortunately, if your printer driver is older than than when the change was implemented, you have little resource except to ignore the message.
