Recently disenrolled from HP Instant Ink subscription because I do not print very often and therefore do not need automatic ink cartridge refills. Have recently replaced the CYAN cartridge with a genuine HP replacement cartridge purchased from local retailer. Tried printing today and now the printer is not allowing me to print and displays: "The indicated cartridges cannot be used until printer is enrolled in HP Instant Ink" Magenta/Yellow/Cyan are all displayed. Is there a work around for this? I prefer not to be enrolled in the subscription, or is this not allowed by HP unless I'm enrolled in HP Instant Ink? Thank you.
