-
What do I get?
- Once enrolled, you’ll receive a Welcome Kit delivered to your door. The ink or toner cartridge you receive is special and only works with HP Instant Ink. Your next shipment of ink or toner will be sent only when ink or toner levels are low, not monthly. No need to worry, because your printer drops us a note and your next set of cartridges will be automatically dispatched. Simply return the old cartridges with prepaid recycling.
-
How do I pick a plan?
- The best plan is based on your usage. If you don’t know how much you print, no worries–you can change or cancel your plan at any time, at no extra cost. Your dashboard in the HP Smart app will help you keep track of the number of pages you’ve printed for the month.
-
How do I save?
- We make larger cartridges with less packaging, only ship before ink or toner is needed, and recycle cartridges. HP passes these savings on to you and the environment. With ink, go ahead and print in color because color prints are the same price as black and white.
-
What if my printing varies?
- Don’t worry. You can change or cancel your plan anytime. And there’s no annual fee. If you print less one month, pages roll over. If you print more, then you can purchase extra.

What happens to my unused pages?

What is HP Instant Ink?
HP Instant Ink is an ink replacement service where you can print a certain number of pages per month, depending on your business needs, all for a low monthly fee. Instead of buying cartridges, the monthly fee includes ink or toner and delivery right to your door. Prices start at just $0.99 per month.
Once enrolled in the HP Instant Ink program, you will receive an ink or toner kit delivered to your door. Shipments are sent whenever your cartridge levels are low using advanced technologies present in any compatible HP printer. You can even return used cartridges to be recycled for free.
It is important to note that the HP printer ink cartridges and HP printer toner cartridges you receive will only work with HP printers.
How Does HP Instant Ink Work?
Your HP printer sends an electronic signal when you're running low on ink, indicating that you require replacements. Original HP ink cartridges are delivered to your door before you run out.
HP Instant Ink plans are based on the number of pages you or your business typically prints per month in order to save you money instead of wasting ink. This is possible because HP makes larger cartridges with less packaging, ships them just before you need them and recycles them after they’re used. Place used cartridges in prepaid envelopes, and HP handles the rest, making recycling hassle-free.
You can print in color as much as needed because, with the HP Instant Ink plan, color prints are the same price as black and white. If you need to print extra pages, you can order additional sets of pages at a low fee. What’s more, unused pages rollover, and you can change your plan or cancel at any time at no cost.
How Much is HP Instant Ink?
