- jayrox 11y agothis is not unique to epson. hp and xerox printers do the same thing.
- e-nouri 11y agoI had Lexmark before, it was never a problem! unbelievable, the thing is that I never used the colors, they dried out! You have to buy all of them just to print in black!
- bsilvereagle 11y agoI believe this is because the tracking dots[1] require yellow ink. [1] https://w2.eff.org/Privacy/printers/index.php https://w2.eff.org/Privacy/printers/index.php
- kuschku 11y agoWell, why can I print with just black ink on my canon and HP multifunction printers then? (they also allow me to do high-res (4800dpi) scans of money without any issue, in hilarious contrast to photoshop, which refuses to open them)
- derFunk 11y agoMaybe you got to have them inserted, yes, but they can be empty. (My HP OfficeJet 6500A Plus also prints with empty color cartridges. I just replaced them today after weeks of emptyness).
