HP ENVY 6020e All-in-One Printer

My black ink cartridge stopped working long ago on my HP envy printer. Not sure what the problem was - maybe it just dried up. For some reason, I'm able to print black and white using just the colour cartridge but the quality is poor. I'm on instant ink, so until I use a black cartridge I won't get any black ink sent through. What can I do, short of buying a new black cartridge myself?

Tried contacting HP/instant ink but options for support are insanely hidden and this appears to be the only way to get any help - is that right? Might have to cancel my subscription as it's too much hassle to get basic support...
