Registration

[JL617]

I have been trying to register a new printer for days and the HP registration is always temporarily unavailable.   The suggestions I read on the support page do not help. 

How long do i have to register a product after purchase date?

Hi @JL617 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

I understand how discouraging it feels to keep trying to register your new printer and see the process unavailable. Thank you for your persistence—it shows real commitment to getting everything set up properly. Let’s clarify how product registration works and what options you have.

 

Registration Timeline

• You can register your HP product at any time after purchase.
• There is no strict deadline immediately after purchase; registration is primarily used to link your product with your HP account and ensure your details are up to date.
• Even if registration is delayed, your warranty coverage is based on the purchase date and proof of purchase, not on the registration date.

 

Steps to Register Your Printer

1. Go to the HP Product Registration page: HP Product Registration
2. Sign in with your HP account or create one if you don’t already have it.
3. Enter the product details (serial number and product number).
4. Complete the registration form with your purchase information.

 

Alternative Method

If the online registration page continues to show unavailable, you can still keep your proof of purchase safely. When needed, warranty and support are validated using the purchase receipt. Registration is a convenience, not a requirement for coverage.

 

Helpful Resource

For more details on registration and warranty validation, you can refer to: HP Product Warranty Check

So to answer your concern directly: you are not limited by a short window—you can register your printer later as well. The most important thing is to keep your purchase receipt safe, since that is what determines warranty coverage.
