Hello!
We have just bought an HP printer and have a 3 months free trial of ink. We signed up for the Occasional printing plan, but would like to know does this affect how many pages you can print in your free trial? We would need to be printing more pages at this current time and would like to know under the free trial can we still print 700 pages per month? Also, if we upgrade to the heavy printing at this current time, would it wipe out our free trial? Please can you help with this query.
Many thanks.

Short Answer to your question.
note:If you were charged during your free trial, you printed over the page maximum that the free trial allows. When you print over your monthly pages, you are billed for additional pages.
Answer Reference and contact information
HP Instant Ink - Promotions and Free Month Offers
What does that mean?
The plan in which you are enrolled governs the allowed page count within that plan (free or not).
You can print over the allowed pages - you will be charged for the extra sets of pages at the price applicable for your region.
"Free" is not unlimited. The plan you are on determines the number of "included" pages for the month.

What to do?
- Contact Instant Ink Support if you want to change your plan. In so much that I am aware, changing the plan negates the "free" offer. This could be wrong - ask the question.
- Print as you wish, knowing you will be charged for extra "sets" of pages - then change your plan later. Depending on the plan you chose in the trial, this option could be more expensive than switching plans and losing the three months free trial.
- Wait and see if one of our roving agents answers here.
