Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

Yes, you can certainly use your printer without a subscription to the Instant Ink Print-by-Page Service.

 

HP Instant Ink is -- in all except one particular situation - an OPTIONAL service subscription.

 

Exception to the "Optional" Rule:  HP All-In Plan - Printer / Ink / Support

 

===========================================

 

Simply say, "No" (click / select) everywhere and every time the offer is made.

 

Too late?

Subscribed?

What is "Free Ink"?

 

There is no extra cost for ink.

 

Ink is provided as part of your subscription - use a drop or use a cup full, ink is included at no extra cost.

 

Important

 

After the initial Ink Kit is mailed out, ink is sent (only) when the printer notifies the service that ink is depleted and a shipment is needed.

 

  • All ink activated by the plan and all ink sent to you works as along as the trail / subscription service is active.

and

  • Subscription / Instant Ink remains the property of HP and should be returned to HP at close (termination) of the service contract.

It is important that you understand the Instant Ink cancellation / termination process and your responsibilities.
