Product: photosmart printer

so this is probably a silly question, i was given an HP photosmart printer and wonder if when it runs out of ink, i need to replace all the colors or if just replacing black is sufficient since i mostly use black? i just saw that you can buy individual colors, please educate me. thanks.

You need to replace the ink cartridge that reports being empty.

If any ink cartridge is empty ( colours or black) your printer will stop and you will not be able to print even in black&white.
