HP Instant ink, instant karma
I had bought a HP printer and almost immediately sent it back. It had 3 months free ink so a package came today and I no longer need it.
It is HP 68 both black and tri-color cartridges first person who responds and sends me an email with their address gets it.
It won’t be immediately but some time in the very near future I will get it in the mail, work schedule permitting.

I bought a HP and declined to sign up for instant ink. The printer came with 2 sets of ink cartridges but when I loaded the second set in (well over a year after purchase) they wouldn't work. According to the HP Smart program it was because I didn't sign up for instant ink.

Good luck!


Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

I was watching a YT video where the guy opened a cartridge to show what’s inside. Like him, I was very surprised. Instead of liquid ink sloshing around, it is just an ink-dampened sponge.

I refuse to purchase any more ink cartridges for my HP for my PSC. I just have local printers do it all for now. Being retired, we have WAY less need for printed or scanned documents.

Our PSC is pretty much relegated to scanning photos and documents.
