Years ago I had a printer (I think it was an Epson) that had an "emergency print" mode. If it was running low on any color, "emergency print" would do its best to print your document with whatever ink it had available. Even if all it had was yellow, by god it would print your document in yellow. If it had nothing by cyan and magenta and you wanted to print a photo of your cat, you'd get a funky posterized picture of your cat. But it would still print it.

And trying to cancel something that's already in the queue is almost as hard as trying to cancel Comcast

"But you have cyan!"
No, fuck you! This is cheap cyan! I want the OFFICIAL cyan!
Edit: yes I am talking about HP. Fuck you HP.
