To bypass the empty magenta cartridge issue on the Lexmark CS510de and print in black, follow these steps:

1. From the printer's home screen, navigate to:
Settings > Print Settings > Quality Menu > Print Mode

2. Select Black Only mode.

This setting allows the printer to use only the black toner cartridge for printing. However, note that if the printer is set to stop printing when any color cartridge is empty, this may not work until the empty cartridge is replaced.
