My IP 4200 Cannon printer shows both black cartridges CLI 5 & CLI8 as
being empty although both are still 3/4 full.
The black is hardly ever used because i only use this printer for color
photos. What can i do ?

How do you know the cartridges are 3/4 full? If you remove one of the
cartridges you will see it consists of two compartments, one of them is foam
filled and one has only ink in it. If the one that is not foam filled is empty
then the cartridge is empty regardless of the amount of ink in the foam filled
compartment.
Even if you don't print text the large cartridge will be used up during
automatic routine head cleaning cycles and the small black is used in photos
added to the other colours to make up the correct colour composition.
