  • print set for black, keeps using colour toners as well

    From j m@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 16 18:05:54 2021
    I have the printer set for black only printing
    It keeps using the colour cartridges, as well as the black cartridge. This gets expensive. The black cartridge still is showing 30% of the toner left.

    How do I get it to stop using the colour cartridges?

    What operating system?

    What printer?

    How did you set it to black/white (monochrome)?

    On my printer it won't print if the color cartridge isn't there.
