I have an HP Photosmart C3180 All-in-one. As I haven't had any need for color lately, when I last replaced ink, I only replaced the black cartridge. It didn't work, even when printing grayscale-only images, even when telling print-set-up grayscale-only.
To be precise: Black lines were black, but pale gray areas were an even paler yellow. I've just discoverd that the printer does the right thing with text from a pdf. The black ink cartridge is getting used, just not enough.
Much to my surprise, the color option black only grayscale does what I want when printing from a GUI.
