nick_west3 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Hi All, Quick question, I've been using 'Advanced B&W Photo' mode with my R2400 when printing B&W but I've noticed it still appears to be using a lot of colour ink. Does anyone know if changing this mode to 'Black' ensures that only black ink is used? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaldog Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 ABW never uses just one ink (Black) nor do you ever want that with anything but maybe text.

Is this because it can't hit a neutral black without the use of colour inks? So does the 'black' setting only use the black carts then? I'm only printing solid black line art and it's costing a fortune replacing the colour inks all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
