Question 1

can this printer work with only the black cartridge?

Accepted Answer

Not sure.  This printer was actually purchased for my son at college.  However I have had two PIXMA printers before this one and they will not print if any of the ink cartridges are empty.  Why not just  print black and white only via the printout setup routine.  That would minimize color ink usage.

Question 2

does it come with ink?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  It came with one (1) black cartridge and one (1) color cartridge.  I suspect that they are both low capacity, but sufficient to get started.

Question 3

the person i am buying this for has an old computer with a tower and floppys will this work?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say without knowing more about the computer. If the computer is connected to the internet, you could probably download the drivers and whatnot. In short, there's a decent chance it will work, but may require some finagling. If you and/or the recipient are fairly comfortable digging deep into settings and drivers, you'd probably be OK. If not, you'd probably have a hard time finding any printer that would work right out of the box.
