You can also log onto the printer's web interface and change the behavior settings. On 'low toner' set it to continue printing. I got another couple of hundred pages before the cartridge ran dry.
Is this possible with this model? It only has USB, no ethernet. In any case, there are probably also ways to change these settings via push-button acrobatics.
Pushbutton acrobatics, indeed look here

Exactly! There are a variety of different settings that can be programmed into these printers via the buttons, and I have always had to repeat the sequence a couple of times before getting it to stick. It is also worth doing a printout of the settings after making a change in order to make sure something else has not been changed inadvertently. The ethernet/web interface is easier to use when it is available.
