For the same reason it will not use black ink only when photo printing
even if the color content to be printed is only black.

That was Volkan's opinion. IIRC, he had used a photo media selection so

from an Epson inkjet using only black ink is to choose "black ink only"
and transparency media or put blank ink in all cartridges. I'm all ears
for other suggestions.
