Printing with an empty color ink cartridge
If one or more of the color ink cartridges is empty, you can still
print documents with black ink as long as all cartridges are still
installed. To continue printing when one of the color Ink Out
lights is lit continuously, turn the printer off and back on again.
Be aware that any data you sent to the printer before turning it
off will be lost.
Note:
The empty color ink cartridge must remain installed.
Before sending data to the printer, choose Black as the Ink
setting in the printer driver. For details on the printer driver
settings, see online help for Windows or Chapter 4 for
Macintosh.
To switch back to color printing, you must install a new color
ink cartridge as described in this chapter, and then turn the
printer on.
If the black ink runs out, you cannot continue printing until
you replace it even though the color ink cartridges still contain
ink.
