Is there any way we can override having two ink cartridges in the printer? I use only black ink and don't want to spend the money on color ink if I don't have to.

No, the Canon MG3600 Series printer cannot operate with only one ink cartridge installed. If either the color or black FINE cartridge is not installed, an error occurs and the machine cannot print.

• When you start printing after replacing the FINE cartridge, the machine starts cleaning the print head automatically.
