Instant Ink to an APO

[ingen77]

Hi, I read a similar thread that said Instant Ink could be used overseas at an APO address if timeliness of ink shipments isn't a big deal (I can deal with delays!) I'm therefore trying to sign up for Instant Ink, but there's no option for AP when selecting a state. Any idea how I can get around this to still have it shipped over here?

Thanks!

Hi @ingen77

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.

I understand that you are based abroad at an APO Address and you are having difficulties enrolling for Instant Ink

I'd like to help.

Please use this Link to Validate your Address.

If your Address shows up, then only you will be able to enroll for Instant Ink.

Thanks for the response. I entered my info at the link and verified my address, so theoretically I could get Instant Ink over here. However, when I go to put in my shipping address for Instant Ink, there is a drop down menu for state. It only lists the 50 States, not AP (American Pacific). Is there any way to work around this?

I am having this same problem! My address is verified through the USPS website, but the drop down menu for Instank Ink doesn't list AP as a state. Please help!

Hi Amber. I eventually just listed California as the state on someone else’s recommendation, as AP Mail is funneled through there. It works!! I’ve gotten 2 shipments so far - it takes a while though, so if you know you’re going to go through a lot of ink in a short period, I’d call ahead and see if they’ll send an extra shipment. I’m a teacher and tend to print a lot in August as I get ready for the school year, so i usually ask for extra ink then anyways.
