How to override printer settings - [wcip]Angel - 12-05-2003
Here's the thing:
I want to print out a picture I have. I have an empty black ink cartridge and a half-full/half-empty (depending on how you look at it) colour cartridge. When I try to print the picture I get a message saying someting along the lines of "Empty ink cartridge. Click here to order a new one."
However, there's no black in the picture I want to print. I should be able to print the damn thing without using any black ink. Is there any way to override the message and order the thing to print anyway?
I've got an Epson C42 PLUS, on a windows XP system.

... really?
That must be a really bright picture then, if it doesn't have black at all.
As for the printer issue, I've no idea since I've only used laser printers, ever.

If you have the owner's manual I would consult that first. And if you are really set against buying that black cartridge, use a friends if you can't figure it out! :)

Well. It was a matter of doing it earlier this afternoon, before I went out. Of course I'll get a new cartridge, but I wasn't able to do so earlier, due to the shops being closed and me being in sort of a hurry.
