How can I make my printer print a simple page in black and white when one of my color cartridges is empty. Specifically, the yellow cartridge is completely empty and there is no practical way to resell it.
Yes, it is one of those new HP designs that has a complicated way of keeping the ink in a special platter so that you can't put more take into the cartridge. I tried buying some refilled cartridges, but one of them fails on me and I have to be the one that I needed the most.
So, until I can afford to buy replacement cartridge, I can't use this printer. I can't even print in black and white because the printer just will not accept that tests an alternative choice when one of the color cards is empty. There is plenty of eight in the black cartridge, but one of the color inks is completely empty and the printer refuses to do anything.
Their opt to be away to force a printer to go ahead and print in black and white. But I've tried all the options I can find in the printer just get stuck on this business about the carts being empty. I don't understand this. It doesn't make sense to stop the printing process because one cartridge is empty. Printing in black and white should always be an available option. At least that's what I think.
So here's my question, is there some kind of a patch or act or trick that one could use to force the printed to go ahead and print even though one of the color cartridges is completely empty.
Forgot to mention, this is an HP printer. If I have an Epson, I wouldn't have this problem.
Thanks in advance.
