It seems unfair to charge addressing an envelope on Instant Ink the same as an entire page of print.
This is especially annoying with a bulk of Christmas cards.

This is the way the Instant Ink Print-by-Page subscription service works.

 

A page is any content printed on a sheet of paper - or, in this case, an envelope.

The definition, and how this is done, is explained in your regional Terms of Service contract.

 

 

One Workaround (ignore if you don't like the idea): Print a sheet of labels on which you have entered the addresses.

Depending on the number of labels on the sheet, this does reduce the number of "sheets" charged to your account.
