INK REPLACEMENT- WILL IT WORK IF ONE COLOR IS OUT
45316
The machine will continue to operate, yielding faded/discolored results, if the color or black tanks are empty

Yes, it will work but with the way it is setup unless you pick one of the specific colors to print, like cyan or yellow, it says it is out of ink. This comes from personal experience. As a note, we use color refills from Costco and have had no issues with the ink. Works great and saves tons of $$$.

There are 2 ink tanks. One is black and the other is color. If the black is empty the colors print funny. And if the color is empty, the black prints faded looking. So the answer is, yes it will work, but it won't look very good.

I haven't used it enough to run out of ink yet and also it isn't working at all at this time. It was printing fine (from my living room) then one day I tried to print a recipe and it would not print. I don't have the know how to fix the problem and hope I can find someone that can help. My ex daughter-in-law set it up for me but is no longer available.to print a recipe and it wouldn't print. I have no idea HOW to get it working - it's all greek

Replace only the ones that run out - that is the beauty of having separate color cartridges. It is always good to have a replacement for every cartridge in reserve. So, when you use your last cartridge of any color or black size, make sure to get replacements for it as soon as possible. The printer will not function if a cartridge is empty!

YesIf colored ink is out it will ask you if you want to print using black onlyThis is based off my printer

It should. And even if the ink shows it's expired, it should work just fine, just hit OK on the menu. I've been purchasing this cartridges for about 3 years and have never had a problem with them. Because I use black more than the color, my printer will sometimes say the color ones are expired and I should change the cartridge but I just hit the ok button and everything works fine. The ink, both black and color have always given great color for me.

Yes it will, you will get (3) bottles of black ink and (3) bottles of other colors in the kit. mine work absolutely great. My kits have paid for themselves already. try not to over fill your cartridge, and spread out a news paper to work on.

it is possible, the inks are available. I do not recommend this printer for dye sub work - too expensive. if the printer has been used with regular inks either buy a new printer or an extra set of inks - it will take a set of inks to flush the old ink from the printer. the inks cost twice the cost of a new printer.

How about ink usage? Will it print if one of the colors is out? Or, does it completely shut down and make you buy a new color cartridge before it will print again?Thanks.

if it is the thin clear covering over the area the ink goes through to the printer you can leave it alone. The printer will get the ink. My first replacement was black ink and it was the same way. It will still work. I printed something first and then it recognized it. If it does not print using that cartridge...call or write the place that you bought your ink. I hope this helps and Happy Printing :D

Who knows. I bought a color and black cartridge and the color one would not work but the black cartridge did.

No problems yet, but only one refill. Check to be sure that there is not ink on the chip at the bottom front of the cartridge or on the pins that make contact with the chip. Clean them with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol to see if that helps. As for the colors, try the cleaning function that was mentioned in another answer. You can also remove the print head to see if there is any spilled ink on those contacts. If all else fails and you are still missing colors, soaking the print head in Windex for a couple of days, then rinsing in water can help dissolve clogs.

It depends on what is wrong with it. I know that many times my printer would tell me that I need to replace the ink even when I know there is plenty of ink. Come to find out that if I use a fake cartridge, sometimes it will reject it. So, then I have to put in a Epson cartridge and the rest of the fake ink will work fine. If you have tried cleaning the heads, then you might have to replace the ink for the color that is not printing right. You can also call Epson and they will try to help you.

For sure. The printer and printer program will let you know when the ink is low and you only have to replace that one.

The only cool ink color substitution feature is when black runs out and the other colors make a few copies in "almost black".Nothing I found on the WorkForce 645 allows any other cartridge color to run out without stopping the whole machine from printing until a new refilled cartridge (or an O.E.M. Epson cartridge) is in place.

Not for this refill ink kit. It only sells in set. If you need specific color then, you can buy our pint ink which sell by each color.

I honestly don't know.but i assume it would since the ink is sold individually by color .i have used this ink many times and it works like a charm. .. Of course not perfect but i haven't wasted any money on new ink since and it's been a year already.

yes. in my experience with this printer you have to replace colors before you can print again. i have tried going to black and white only and greyscale like the support pages ask you to do but i have had no luck.
