Name something more annoying than running out of printer ink right when you really need it. If you have an eligible HP printer, there’s a hack to this conundrum.

HP Instant Ink sends ink cartridges right to your door when you need them so you’ll never run out. And not only can you get this service for as low as $0.99 per month (including cartridge recycling and shipping), but we’ve partnered with HP Instant Ink to give our readers a $10 credit when they sign up.

What is HP Instant Ink?

HP Instant Ink is a service that HP offers for most of their printers. It’s a subscription that sends ink to your door automatically when your printer runs low. This way, you never have to worry about running out of ink in the middle of an important print job.

When you sign up for the pages plan, you’ll choose a plan based on how many pages you print each month. HP uses your printer’s ink usage data to know when you’ll need more ink, and then sends you new Instant Ink cartridges before you run out.

It’s important to understand that the service you’re paying for is how many pages you print versus how many ink cartridges you use. Because of this, if you decide to cancel your subscription, the HP Instant Ink cartridge gets deactivated and must be replaced by a non-Instant Ink one to continue printing.

The cost of the service is based on the number of pages you print each month, with different plans available depending on your printing needs.

HP Instant Ink FAQs:

Bottom-line cost: The cost will depend on the printer plan you choose. I got the 10-page plan for $0.99 per month. After the $10 credit, I won’t pay a single thing for 10 months.

When will I be charged? You’ll be charged when your $10 credit runs out, depending on the plan you’ve chosen.

When will it ship? HP Instant Ink connects to your printer, so it knows when you’re running low. It will automatically send you ink when you need it.

What if I need to print more pages or I don’t use up all my pages for the month? For just $1, you can receive another set of 10 – 15 pages. If you print less than what you’re allotted for a month, you can carry over up to three times the number of pages in your plan to the following month.

Does HP Instant Ink work for all HP printers? HP Instant Ink is available for a variety of HP inkjet printers. Here are some of the most popular HP printer series that are eligible for the HP Instant Ink program:

• HP DeskJet printers
• HP ENVY printers
• HP OfficeJet printers
• HP Tango printers

However, not all models within these series are eligible, so it’s important to check the HP Instant Ink website to see if your specific printer model is compatible with the program. Additionally, HP frequently updates the list of eligible printers, so even if your printer is not currently compatible, it may become eligible in the future.

What about all the empty ink cartridges? Your membership includes cartridge recycling and free shipping.

Will I need to cancel? Yes, this is a subscription; if you don’t want to use it anymore, you can cancel anytime.

To cancel:

1. Go to the HP Instant Ink website and log in to your account.
2. Click on the “Account” tab at the top of the page.
3. Select “My Plan” from the dropdown menu.
