HP+ & Instant Ink Awareness
Know what you’re buying.Protect your cartridge choices.
Automatic replenishment can be convenient, but some HP+ configurations may affect your ability to use compatible cartridges.
Understanding the difference between HP+ printers, Instant Ink subscriptions and standard HP printers can help you make a more informed purchase decision.
Understand The Difference
HP+ and Instant Ink are not exactly the same thing and may have different implications.
Review Before You Buy
Knowing the printer model and program conditions can help preserve your supply options.
Understanding HP+
Automatic replenishment can be convenient, but the printer model matters.
When you buy a printer ending with the letter “e”, such as an OfficeJet 8010e, the printer may be associated with HP+ features and requirements that can limit the use of some compatible cartridges.
That means customers who want to preserve the option of buying alternative cartridges should review the printer model and HP+ conditions before completing their purchase.
Important: Your original page states that this situation is irrevocable for affected “e” models and that changing to a different printer may be necessary to use compatible products again.
The Good News
Instant Ink cancellation may restore more flexibility on eligible non-“e” printers.
If you previously registered for HP+ or Instant Ink but your printer model does not end with the letter “e”, your original content explains that cancelling the subscription may allow you to start purchasing alternative cartridges again.
