Cyber Monday 2026: Printer & Ink Subscription Deals

Check page allowances, trial eligibility, and renewal terms for HP, Brother, and Canon before Cyber Monday.

Cyber Monday 2026 falls on Monday, November 30, three days after Black Friday on November 27, according to NerdWallet's Cyber Monday date guide. Readers shopping for printer and ink subscription deals can compare monthly ink plans from HP, Brother, and Canon that tie cost to printed pages. An ink subscription charges a set monthly fee for a page allowance and ships cartridges before you run out.

These plans suit steady home printers, school work, and small offices. Trials lower early cost, but page caps, printer eligibility, and renewal terms set the real value. Check those limits before you enroll.

How much do monthly plans cost?

HP lists U.S. Instant Ink plans from $1.99 per month for 10 pages to $32.99 per month for 700 pages, including ink, shipping, and recycling, in HP's Instant Ink FAQ. That range lets light printers stay low while larger households pick a higher tier.

Pick by recent monthly pages, not by printer price. Canon lists $4.99 per month for Occasional, $7.99 for Moderate, and $11.99 for Frequent, plus 200 free pages per month for 3 months after enrollment for select PIXMA printers only, in Canon's PIXMA Print Plan support article. The free pages apply only to those select models.

Confirm your exact model qualifies during enrollment.

What trial does Brother include?

Brother advertises up to 50% savings on Brother Genuine Ink and Toner, a 2-month free trial for new subscribers, free delivery before ink runs out, and change-or-cancel anytime, in Brother's Refresh EZ Print page. The trial is for new subscribers. Delivery timing depends on connected ink-level monitoring.

Use the trial to test your true page use. Keep the printer connected so low-ink alerts trigger shipment. If volume changes, adjust the tier before the trial ends.

How do page allowances shape the choice?

A low tier fits occasional forms and homework. A mid tier fits frequent school packets and work documents. A high tier fits shared family printers with daily output.

Unused pages often do not carry the same value as printed pages. Extra pages can add cost. Track two months of printing before Cyber Monday checkout.

What should you verify before paying?

Trial enrollment can start automatic billing after the trial period. Check account, location, and new-subscriber limits on the enrollment page. Save the terms page and cancellation steps with your receipt.

  • Match the plan to your exact printer model.
  • Confirm monthly pages, overage rules, and paper add-ons.
  • Note trial length, renewal date, and how to cancel.
  • Keep a reminder before the first paid month.
