HP 8600 ink issue

[Ecl888]

My 8600 was working fine until I went out of ink ( great printer) I guess it is so great that HP would like all 8600 owner to purchase a new printer so we can all use the instant ink Program. I don’t know what to do with my 8600  that still works, can’t donated ( new owner can get ink for it ) can anyone suggest something

@Ecl888, Welcome to HP Support Community!

When you buy a new printer, you can cancel the subscription for the printer. Before donating the printer, remove the web services from the printer and then proceed. Here is how you do it-

1. From the top of the screen, touch or swipe down the tab to open the Dashboard, touch ( HP ePrint ), and then touch (Web Services Settings).

2. Touch Remove Web Services.

Reboot the devices.

With this, the printer can work with regular ink cartridges.

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!

I’m trying to find a fix  for my 8600 so I don’t have to buy a new printer, the 8600 I have still works just can’t use ink bought from authorized dealers ( keep saying cartridges are damaged, 3 tries already) tried all the updates and suggestions and  the help of an overseas technician from HP nothing works, if you have anything new to suggest please let me know,

Follow the steps from the document HP Printer Does not Print and Error Indicates Faulty Ink Cartridge to see if that helps!

If the issue persists, it could be a hardware failure.

Please reach out to the HP Support in your region regarding the service options for your printer.

Hope this helps!
