I have enrolled for Instant Ink but was wondering.....  Occasionally, I have a large print job (probably around 400 pages) on behalf of the company I work for.  This will take me way over my monthly allowance of 100 pages.  If the company purchase HP cartridges, will I be able to use them for that print job and then switch back to the Instant Ink Cartridges for my own work?  What would happen if they purchased compatible cartridges rather than HP Original Cartridges?  Thanks

If you swap out all the Instant Ink cartridges for regular HP cartridges, you will not be charged on your account.

 

What would happen if they purchased compatible cartridges rather than HP Original Cartridges?  They may or may not work.  Up to you.

 

I would just pay the extra overage fee for the pages used.
