I don't know the C540N, but there are *no* lasers that will let you print colour when even 1 cartridge is empty. There some that will still let you print black when a colour cartridge is empty, but they are rare. Usually they require you to select Mono printing in the driver, to ensure that only black will be used. I read somewhere that the C540N driver does not let you do that. Just printing a black text document may not do the trick.<br />
<br />
The main reason is that, even if you are printing mono, the colour toners may be used as well to give more shades of grey. And, of course, black is used to print very many colours.

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
