I purchased a used HP Deskjet and am trying to register it with Instant Ink.
I've received an error stating that the printer is already associated with another account and cannot be added to mine.
Error code: UA_400_EB000U0422
I have no way of contacting the original owner of the printer. How can I remove it from the account it's currently associated with and add it to mine?
