It’s one of the most important questions asked by those considering switching to the cheaper HP Instant Ink service or continuing to buy ink cartridges. The answer is very simple, but to really understand why this or that option is better, let’s take a look. advantages and disadvantages which everyone offers.

HP Instant Ink is an ink exchange service that works through printing plans that we can choose and switch between at will. It does not mean any kind of commitment, it works at home and without shipping costs and also It doesn’t take into account the ink we useonly the pages we print.

If we buy ink cartridges, we have to worry about finding stores that sell them at a reasonable price, we will have to incur a significant cost every time we need to replace the cartridges, we will have to check the ink levels to prevent this from happening at the worst possible moment and we don’t have spare parts and we will have to control ink usage to prevent our expenses from skyrocketing.

HP Instant Ink is cheaper, more convenient and more sustainable

You can print with HP Instant Ink from just 1.49 euros per month. In order to print by buying original HP ink cartridges, you need to spend a lot more money, because the tri-color and black and white cartridges will cost you at least about 40 euros, depending on the printer model you have and the menus you find.

The HP305XL cartridges match this price. With them you can print up to 200 pages in color and 240 pages in black and white, the figures are approximate and vary depending on the coverage and level of print quality. The more coverage and the higher the quality, the more ink we use, and fewer pages we can print with these cartridges.

The total number of pages we can print depends on the use of cartridges can be reduced by more than half, and thus our expenses will skyrocket because we will be using more ink. This happens especially when printing high-quality photos that cover the entire paper, as well as when printing graphics or black-and-white images.

With HP Instant Ink, we won’t have this problem because spending more ink won’t mean we have to pay more. A page printed in full color and high quality will cost us the same as another printed in black and white, which translates into significant savings that we notice month after month.

If we choose HP Instant Ink with the 40 euros that the ink cartridges would cost us we will be able to print a total of 900 pages for three months, in full color and without ink consumption limits. I think this makes it clear which HP Instant Ink is cheaper and also allows us to print with total freedom.

But this service is not only cheaper, but also more comfortable and sustainable, because:

• It works in an automated way. The printer monitors the ink levels and detects when they are low. If this happens, order and have new cartridges shipped to your door before the ones we use run out, free of shipping costs.
• It includes a recycling program that allows us to conveniently recycle all the cartridges we use for free.
• Uses only high-capacity Original HP ink cartridges, helping to reduce resource consumption and help protect the environment.
