Epson 460 black cartridge only

[Von Heler]

Greetings,

I have an epson 460 which I now use for printing black text only. The
colour cartridge has finally run out, and it is not allowing me to print
out black text. Is there any way to by-pass the "colour cartridge empty"
message and use only the black ink? Other than buying a colour cartridge.

Cheers,

Von Heler

You could lift out the color cartridge and put it back using the same
procedere as if you had a new cartridge.

-BUT-BUT - to print with an empty color cartridge will ruin the color
print heads. Best way is to buy a new cartridge or one of this ink sets,
which allow you to refill the empty color cartridge.
