it wont be used for anything that difficult other than essays and the occasional directions print. I know some printers only use colors to print black is this one of those? I would rather not have to buy 2 ink cartridges If I didnt have to

It will do the job for you.

It does run with two cartridges, yes.

This model should have a facility to use the black cartridge only not grey scales, which is different.

The manual that come with it should tell you how to do if you buy it but I think its: Preferences; Maintenance tab and scroll down to the cartridge icon and then select black cartridge only. You can switch it back and fore if you want but remember to set the black cart only option as the default or it may use the two the next time the printer is turned on.
