Hi @carlerussell,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Oh no, sounds like your printer’s acting like it joined a secret ink cult 😅. I get how maddening that must feel when you just want to hit "print" and move on with your day, but instead, it feels like your printer is holding your documents hostage until you join HP Instant Ink.

 

Just a warm heads-up: HP would never force you into a subscription. Instant Ink is totally optional, like dessert after dinner, not the main course!

 

Tell me though, is your printer flashing weird messages? Not printing at all? Acting like it's the boss of you? Let’s figure this out together and show that printer who's really in charge 💪✨

 

We're all ears! 

 

Best regards,
