Joined Instant Ink program, but still had a small stock of HP ink cartridges, previously purchased. When the Instant Ink Cyan, Magenta and Yellow cartridges ran out, I replaced them from my existing stock. Up came a dire warning, that I had committed some sort of crime, by installing perfectly good HP cartridges, but not Instant Ink compatible.

Surely, the system can recognise that these are pukka HP cartidges and not make such an annoying fuss.
