Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

 

Long ago there was a "sometimes worked" method to recycle old (used) ePrint email addresses.

The instructions to do so were removed from the documentation.  ?

 

What to do?

Acquiesce to the inevitable :

Change the name -- you need only change the favorite address by a letter or number.

 

I'm on ePrint address #3 for having lost the first two "favorites" over the years.

 

Things to remember

 

ePrint - Transferring your printer email address from one printer to another

 

When it is time to change printers, disconnect the address from the old printer and quickly move that address to the new printer.  That seems to work.  Add / Remove your printer in your HP Smart / HP Connected account.

 

How to > Set Up an HP Smart / HP Connected Account

        Scroll down to the bottom of the page to FAQ:

        Read Section / Question: Can I transfer my printer to a different HP Smart account?

 

 

FYI only

The newer ePrint tech is called (at this writing) Print Anywhere.  Similar to the older ePrint, Print Anywhere uses the printer email address.

 

“Print Anywhere App” Supported on Select Printers
