Is OfficeJet Pro 8600 Instant Ink compatible?

[AndreaAP]

I have an OfficeJet Pro  8600 (B8A744).

I cannot find it in the list of available printer, even it I have found out some messages in which is said that the cartridges I use (950 and 951) can be sent by HP Instant Ink

Is there any chance to join this program with my present printer or I have to abdicate?

Hi @AndreaAP

Welcome to HP Forums! 🙂

I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers.

• Can you let me know the product number of this printer? (Please do not share the serial number on a public forum)
  Here is a document link which will help you find this information.

• Which Country are you located?

Let me know. I check and let you know if this printer can be enrolled with HP.

Cheers

Sorry for the late answer...

I am from Italy.
Actually I called by phone Italian support and they told me that I could do it, even if my printer is not in the list, as it uses the same cartridges of Officejet 8610 (950 and 951).

Now I tried, after a long period of uncertainty, and the system tells me that I cannot do it, as my printer is not in the program...

I connected it to eprint.

We too have an 8600 -- would like to sign up for Instant Ink... any news on if this is feasible?

Sorry, no.  While the Officejet Pro 8600 uses the same 950/951 cartridges used in the later 8610/8620/8630/8640 series the 8600 does not have the firmware required to communicate with the Instant Ink servers to communicate ink levels and page usage.
