• To use the single-cartridge mode to operate the HP ENVY 5530 series with only one ink cartridge. The single-cartridge mode is initiated when an ink cartridge is removed from the ink cartridge carriage. During single-cartridge mode, the printer can copy documents, copy photos, and print jobs from the computer. To exit single-cartridge mode, Install two ink cartridges in the HP ENVY 5530 series to exit single-cartridge mode.

• No. There has to be some ink in the color cartridge. I tried to do this. I know the older HP printers would allow this. One good this though is that you can set the printer to print black ink only unlike some other printers.
