How to Check if Your HP Printer Has HP+ Activated?
HP+ activation is directly linked to specific extended warranty services.
1. Find the Serial Number (S/N) on a sticker on the back or bottom of your HP printer.
2. Go to the HP Warranty Check website, enter your printer's serial number, and submit. Find the "Service type" field in the search results.
- HP+ Activated: The description will explicitly include "HP+". You will see entries like "HP 2Y STD EXCHANGE - HP+". This confirms the 2-year extended warranty provided by HP+ is active.
- HP+ Not Activated: The service type will describe a standard warranty, such as "Wty: HP HW Replacement Support" or "1-Year Limited Hardware Warranty," with no mention of HP+.
III. What Your Result Means and Your Next Steps
1. If Your Printer Shows "HP+ Activated"
Your printer is operating within the HP+ ecosystem. To ensure proper functionality and enjoy service benefits, you need to use genuine HP cartridges and keep your printer connected to the internet. Attempting to use third-party ink/toner cartridges may result in malfunctions.
2. If Your Printer Shows "HP+ Not Activated"
Your printer is currently operating in standard mode. This means you have the flexibility to choose your ink/toner, whether it's genuine HP cartridges or high-quality compatible cartridges
