Can I run it using just the black ink?
Thanks a lot.

It'll work.

The specs mention four inks, but you only get two in the box. Once I run through the originals and need replacements, can I run the machine using only those other two options—specifically the PG-40 or CL-41—since they seem to have a higher capacity and might be cheaper? I saw this PG-40 at a local supply shop listed in both 20ml and 28ml sizes. How does that work? Will the larger one actually fit?

- Method: 4-ink micro-jet technology, FINE tech, 2pl droplets
- Inks:
- HP PG-37 black (220 pages)
- HP CL-38 color (205 pages)
- HP PG-40 black (355 pages) option
- HP CL-41 color (308 pages) option

Why bother with third-party ink when the originals aren't even that pricey?
For the price of $96, you're getting a printer that delivers top-tier color quality. I've actually sold one myself, so I know what it can do... it really is solid.👍
I'd definitely vote for the Envy.

Regarding the colors, it only uses two cartridges: black and color. That's it.
As for these: - HP PG-40 black (355 pages) option
- HP CL-41 color (308 pages) option

That just means it's a larger volume package with more milliliters per unit. It doesn't mean there are four different colors.
