How many ink cartridges does it use? Will it work if ink is finished in one cartridge?

Hi, It uses only one cartridge and when it runs out the colour starts to fade first. There are 2 sizes of cartridge available, I always use the bigger one which seems to last endlessly. Cheers Harry

Cladon, my Primera Autoprinter only uses one multi-color cartridge. It is the best disc printer I have ever used.

Will not work without cartridge and it uses one cartridge. In addition, this is by far one of the best printer yet.

I don't know, sorry. I always have a set of inks for when one runs out.BTW When not in use, this printer doesn't drain ink anywhere near as much as all the other printers I've owned.

It comes with one of each color ink cartridge. I purchased extras because I wanted them on hand when I needed them and to save on shipping. I purchased generic cartridges and they are working perfectly.

No. In fact, if only one of the other cartridges runs out of ink, you are stuck. It will not print even a test page in black

There are 4 cartridges - Red, Yellow, Blue, Black. Replacement is around $10 for red, yellow, Blue and black a little bit more. I bought it at Office Max and wish I had read some reviews because it is an INK HOG. IT WILL $10 YOU TO DEATH!

Rena is wrong. It will print "Black" using the Color Cartridges in a" run out situation". You can replace individual cartridges . It is not necessary to replace them all at a time. Replace as they run out.

No, like most other inkjet printers, the printer will stop printing when one or more of the ink cartridges run out.

I think I did use this product in the past to refill black ink cartridges and it did work well. I no longer have the printers or this particular refill set. Cartridges will usually take several refills before they have to be replaced. Good luck.

It is really difficult to say. While the cartridge is newly installed, it can do about 500 B & W prints in my opinion. But then the ink dries very slowly over a period of time depending upon the heat and humid weather conditions. Regarding color cartridges it is not at all possible to tell. Depends upon size and color nature of the prints. If you can get about 100, consider yourself lucky !

This may be something I haven't heard of. The standard ink supply is in 6 little cartridges.

It uses two ink cartridges, one for black and another for color. When one of the colors runs out, it keeps printing, albeit poorly.

Correct, it stops working. It does not give you the option of printing using the remaining colors. And it doesn't give you much warning before it runs out of ink. Finally, for some reason, Amazon doesn't directly sell the extra-capacity black ink cartridge; it's only offered from Amazon Resellers, so you'll also have to pay for shipping.

I used 1 black ink just fine. My second black ink rejected it and refuses to print..... as did the 3rd cartridge. However at least I got 1 full cartridge use out of it before the rest were rejected. I even tried renaming my printer in the Control Panel Like hted suggested. Still wouldn't print anymore.

Yes, it is for one cartridge only because the grey color does not come in the pack and the printer won't work without the grey cartridge unfortunatly. I even tried to put a black cartridge in to the empty spot but the printer would not work. That's why I paid for one cartridge only. I hope that helps you, Deborah. :-)

Once the photo ink runs out you will get an error message stating it. This same error message will not allow you to print until it is corrected (by replacing the empty cartridge with a refilled one). So in conclusion you will need all 5 cartridges for printer to work.

Hello!While I can't speak for everyone, we have had an awesome experience with this refill! We are on our second refill & the printer's performance is fine (as it has been performing we purchased ir). I can't imagine ever buying two ink cartridges for the price of a printer again. Hope this helps. :)

Sorry - I can't really help you. I buy the ink when our book-keeper tells me are running low. So I honestly don't really know how many prints it actually yields.
