Can't Scan Or Send Fax. Says Out Of Ink
I bought this S405 because I needed a way to send faxes, and also wanted to scan. The extra features (print, copy, receive faxes) was nice, but I have a laser printer that I use. I have replaced cartridges once when I couldn't fax because it said to. I don't use the printer feature, and it seems that the cartridges have dried up (again). (For the price of a set of cartridges, I can by a scanner.)
How can I get this to come online for fax/scan without buying new, unneeded, cartridges?
