I was wondering if I could still use HP original store bought cartridges even when subscribed to instant ink, my internet goes out at times and sometimes I could use up all my ink before new instant ink cartridges arrive, will I still be able to use original non-instant ink cartridges incase I need to?

Hi @mxkrayz,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I see that you are looking for help with replacement ink for your instant ink account.
Yes, you can use regular store bought ink to resume printing when you are enrolled in the instant ink service.
However, you will have to replace all of the ink cartridges with store bought ones to print.
You cannot mix and match with both store cartridges and instant ink cartridges.
To validate your instant ink subscription, we need some information related to instant ink account. This information cannot be shared on a public post.
