HP LaserJet 2600N
All colors are empty, but Black is brand new. It still says Replace Supplies and the light keeps flashing. Oh, and it won't print anything. So even if I want just B&W, do I have to have color in the other cartridges?
Re: HP LaserJet 2600N

None of the cartridges can be empty if you want to print. Even if you only want to print black, just black you need to replace the other three cartridges. Yes color laser printing is expensive.

Yes you can. Press the arrows until you get in the screen the option system setup and press the check, then press the arrows again until you get print quality and press check, go to replace supplies and press check, press the arrows and you will see the option override out, press check two times and the unit will get back to ready, It might do a calibration but after that the unit will ignore the toner level and will print. By the way you can use color if there is still toner inside the color cartridges
There is an override sequence and it works well. Press the select button (checkmark) to indicate Main menu. Press right-arrow (RA) to select System Setup. Press Select , then RA to Print Quality, Hit select. RA to Replace supplies and hit Select. Now, RA to Override Out and Select. Confirm with Select again. Your 2600n will now run even with an empty toner cartridge.
Press Green Tick, Right, -> System Setup -> Right, Right, -> Print Quality, Right -> Replace Supplies.
Change from stop at out, to override at out.
It'll let you print, and you'll get loads more out of your toner before the pages start to fade.

First of all clean the contacts in the printer for the magenta cartridge, if there is no improvement replace the magenta cartridge, if that doesn't work come back to me
Are you using Xerox or aftermarket compatible ink stixs? I have seen aftermarket ink stixs ruin these machines. You can go to Xerox website and find information on running a process to hopefully clear up the "cyan" or blue printing problem.
