I'm the Riddle_Decipher & I'm writing on behalf of my colleague @Jeet_singh, as the tech is out for the day, that said, I have reviewed your concern and the entire conversation, did some research and here's what you need to know:

 

The cartridges are shipped out automatically when the printer is constantly connected to the internet without any interruption - (printer is not connected to the internet now, as well, make sure the connection is intact if you have issues getting online, please log into the HP Instant Ink and check if it's working, if not use this link to turn off web services: Click here & then use this link: Click here to turn it back one to refresh the settings.

 

Also though your screen may show that the ink is running out, it would continue to print using the reserved ink as it's designed to work until you get the replacement ink, that said, I have boosted the shipment from my end by contacting the carrier, since you are concerned and I'll try to get it delivered to you faster.

 

I hope that answers your query,

Normally, the Instant Ink program would auto-detect the low ink and ship a replacement cartridge, only when the printer isn't constantly connected to the internet or there are connection issues, is when that doesn't happen.
