print test

I don't want my printer to print a test page everytime I install a new ink
cartridge.
A waste of ink! I know it's going to work, it's a new cartridge!
Is there a way to stop it?
Thanks

This is either a printer or printer driver "feature". You will need to poke
around in the printer driver settings to see if the test page can be
omitted. I doubt that you will be successful. The printer needs to cause ink
to flow thru the new cartridge. If it isn't used to print on paper, the ink
would just be sprayed into the waste ink tank inside the printer.
