@hbombgolf, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

Yes, you can replace only one ink cartridge in your HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One printer. The printer uses two ink cartridges: one black and one tri-color (cyan, magenta, and yellow).

 

Ink cartridges

To remove the ink cartridges:

Open the cartridge access door and wait for the print carriage to move to the center of the HP Deskjet All-in-One printer.

Press down to release each ink cartridge and then remove it from the slot.

Pull each print cartridge toward you out of its slot.

I hope this helps.

Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
