Canon Printer Tips – I’m trying to print with one ink cartridge but it’s not working.?
ok i have a Cannon MX300 and my color ink ran out and i only have black ink. I want to print out one sheet for school so i only need black ink.
I changed my settings to where my printer is only supposed to use the black ink cartridge, but whenever i try to print it says i ran out of color ink and i need more. I’m really confused can anybody help me?
Best Answer: You need all cartridges to operate your machine, they are set up to mix all the color and the black (gray scale) to mix together to create true black.
Only if you tell the machine to print gray scale to print from the black cartridge only, but you will need to have both cartridge in.
