Is there a way to force a printer to use the color cartridge to print blank ink?

Could this be done by modifying a color profile, replacing black in the palette with another color (e.g. Navy)? Is it even possible?Is there a way to force a printer to use the color cartridge to print blank ink?
Black is black. (sounds like a song)





You use combination's of colors to get other colors.


The colors in the ink cartridge don't add up to black in any combination. Is there a way to force a printer to use the color cartridge to print blank ink?
Ink is used as a lubricant for the heads. Printing with a color missing will damage your printer. Also, if a color is missing, there is no ink flowing to that head. The little bit left will coagulate and you will end up with a clogged print head. Unless you want to kiss your printer good bye, I suggest you use it as it was intended.
I don't know about the color profiles, but you probably can't just switch the cartridges, because they're usually different sizes. Also, most printers won't print without both cartridges installed.
