Customers are saying

Customers recognize the high-quality ink and ease of use associated with the Instant Ink 100-Page Monthly Plan. Many appreciate the affordable price point for the convenience it offers. However, some users experienced compatibility issues with certain printers and found the monthly page limit restrictive. The plan's value proposition is centered around ink quality and convenience, but compatibility and page limitations are potential drawbacks.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    I chose not to use this because I don't need ink that often and it is way too confusing for me to keep track of.

    This was offered in the package we purchased, but with the volume of printing we do we have not taken advantage of it.

    Didn't sign up for instant ink - not convinced I'll save money in the long run, and don't want to be tied to a plan.

    I tried and tried to get this activated to no avail, not saying it's impossible, just no luck for me. Good idea for those in need. Not a good purchase for me.

    "Instant Ink" will have to take a hit, as HP customer service/tech support is LOWEST of the LOW. So bad, in fact, I returned the ENVY series printer, and HP company didn't have the wherewithal to stop the Instant Ink even tho I gave them the courtesy of a phone call.

    Can't predict my ink usage, so I cancelled it

    I guess I don't see the advantage of using this plan. There's no way to predict the future and how much ink you will or won't use and so it didn't seem worthwhile for me. I cancelled it. I'd rather just buy the cartridge and not worry about 'monthly' usage/costs or needing to change plan to another amount. Not well explained in store either.

    I was unable to utilize the this product because it required some additional information that I did not have access to or the Best Buy store employee. The information was some number that was suppose to be on the receipt . However, that was not available either. Needless to say, I have not benefited from this purchase. I hope that you would be able to remedy this problem for me. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

    I purchased the plan but if your plan ends you are unable to use your printer. You need to replace your cartridge again.

    I can't get help finding my digital pin code/ key I purchased for hp instaink. I tried to get help with several agents who weren't able to help me. They just kept transferring me. Then when I tried to chat, the agent said thanks and clicked off. I wasted money and had to go through HP, which is what I should have done in the first place. It's a gimmick.
