Update

It is possible that the cashback Claim form hasn't been coded correctly and may appear to accept a purchase of a Printer and a Single cartridge as a qualifying purchase. This appears to be go against the Terms and Conditions of the promotion which states that the double cashback requires the purchase of a printer and complete set of printer cartridges.

If in any doubt, please contact Officeworks and HP regarding your order.

Update on 29 December, Advice from HP Customer Service is as follows:

Please be informed that you don't have to enter all purchased inks in one claim, once you have enter one ink and one printer that will be count as one claim, we will validate your claim with your invoice.

Once we have validated that your invoice has full set of ink(Cyan, Magenta, Yellow,Black) and printer, your claim will be approved and if not we will update your claim to printer only.

HP Customer service

I was shopping for 6950 through jb website as they are running 30% off hp printer at the moment and saw the cashback deal from hp-
https://h41201.www4.hp.com/AdLanding/au/en/16305/?

then I tried to check the price in officeworks and found a better model but with the same price as 6950 in jb.

And, if you get one ink cartridge with the printer, you can double cash back from HP.

So I paid $119 for 6960 + 905 ink and am claiming $80 back which I think is a steal for this printer.

the 6970 would be a better option as it supports 2-sided scan but OW doesnt stock them.

There are other printers eligible for cashback too, so please chech hp page yourself.

    I contacted HP regarding this promotion. They replied in a rather short email:
    28 December

    Dear Shaw,

    Thank you for your email.

    Please be informed that to be eligible for the double cashback reward, you have to purchase a Printer and a set of ink Black, Yellow, Magenta, Cyan within the promotion period.

    Thanks and kind regards,

    HP's marketing department is currently unaware that the cashback form is actually faulty / incorrect and that nobody was able to actually add more than 1 ink cartridge (per printer purchase) into the cashback form. I've sent another question however since it's the last weekend before the New Year's I'm not sure if I'll get a response within this week, or the next.

    Update: Reply from HP on 29 December.

    As such if you only bought one cartridge and not a whole set, you may not get $80 in rebates.

    The ink (value combo pack) is more expensive than the printer! $134
    https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/hp-905xl-i…

    Do you know if this ink is valid for the $40 extra cash back?
    https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/hp-905-ink…

    It is $71 (before cashback) for the 300 pages.

    • Savas on 27/12/2018 - 23:27

      They do have cashback on their smart tanks which i think is a much better deal rather than getting sucked into a cheap printer but then having to pay for expensive ink.

        • Savas on 28/12/2018 - 07:51

          The link in OP says $100 cashback on their smart tanks. Though continuous ink tank printers are more expensive but then ink is cheaper. Also i don't know if the HP ones are any good.

        I have a similar printer that someone left om the side of the rd. A full set of cheapest on eBay inks is 20 bucks, I dont print much so I haven't gone through a set yet but the printer has been great so far with no sign of the inks causing any issues

    Read terms and conditions

    You have to purchase complete set

    As per t&c, they have to manually validate the claim, it is not done automatically

    They will reject the claim, it doesn't matter what the website says when you begin the claim. At the end of the day they will redirect you to t&c of Promo if you complain

    This is going to get messy for some people

      But their own website says $80 cashback when checking;

        A few months ago, I purchased a relatively large number of laptops from Dell, who tried to GIFT me a free Injet with each laptop. I had to call them and ask them not to send the free inkjet printers. They were like "But sir, they are free!" to which I replied, "Mate, I'm actually prepared to pay you more, if there is an option to not have those piles of useless plastic sent to me!"

            @[Deactivated]: Totally agree, especially if you only print once a month and by then the heads clog up and you use up half the cartridge trying to clean the heads and use twenty sheets of paper and then after unsuccessfully cleaning the heads you are forced to go and get 5ml of black ink for $40, and then repeat after two months. Laser toner will last you years. If your school kids really really need colour for an assignment go to OW and print off a few colour laser copies.

      • astro81 on 28/12/2018 - 09:38

        The confirmation page says that the claim will be reviewed "within the next few days" with an update then sent, I know they technically have a lot longer to do it but that's just to cover their arses.

  • slappy on 28/12/2018 - 01:24

    If anyone has tried a dummy claim you will notice that after you select your printer and then select say an individual ink cartridge, the web claim will then proceed to the claim amount of $80, it will not let you add an individual cartridge again. If you go back and try to add another cartridge you first have to add a printer and will end up with 2 claims. So I think either their T&C's are messed up and full set is in there maybe to get you to buy more liquid gold when it isn't necessary to gain the full extra $40 rebate.

    Forgot to follow up on this. Looks like my $80 cash back was approved. I did buy the full set of standard inks (not XL), however there was no option for this in the clain, only the XL which is what I selected. 45 days from 3rd Jan. $81.30 net cost.
