I put the new black ink in and will replace the color when I need it. I checked the box to ues black ink only and still will not print. The re-fill or . replace ink box keeps popping up and will not let me print
Please help.

I'm sorry to say, but I just spoke to epson and the printer will not print unless all cartridges have ink. The black ink only option is only used to extend the life of color cartriges. Just another way for them to get you to buy things you don't need.
You could try taking out the ink cartridge and running the cartridge replacement wizard to put it back in. This has helped with me before!

i have the similar problem. i replace all the ink, and they all print expect the black ink. i cant print in colors, but not in black. that's pretty creepy. my ink is not made by epson, its is some local ink, but it should print because the color ink is also not from epson. its pretty bad and am sad.
why should I replace all the color cartridges when i only want to print a word document? Is there a way around it? Please help.
I feel your pain. I have been getting low ink messages for a while (black and cyan). I have a huge paper (25 page word doc) i need to print tonight, and expected to get a replace cartridge message for black, so i bought a black cartridge, since I haven't printed anything in color in weeks. so I got the replace cartridge message and it tells me to replace both the cyan and black. I replaced the black, but now it won't print at all because it says the cyen needs replacing, regardless of setting it to black ink only. I hate this printer. not to mention the only place open at 2 am only has the three color pack, for almost 40 bucks. any help on avoiding having to get out at 2 am to purchase ink I don't need just to print in the black ink I've already purchased would be awesome.
