HP OfficeJet Pro 9023 All-in-One Printer

I have an HP OfficeJet printer 9023, and I have replaced the black cartridge only because I will be printing in black and white only. However, I can't seem to be able to print without the other color cartridge. I keep getting this message " Cartridge missing" 

So is it not possible to print black and white without the other color cartridge?

Unfortunately, that's the way it is. You need the color cartridge.
