Roland XC-540 - One color out, can I print other colors?

Our Roland XC-540 probably needs a new yellow printhead, but we can't get service on it until mid-month. Does anyone think I will do any further harm to it by continuing to print things that don't require any yellow? I have tried it with some decals that use only 100% black, and they print fine, but the printer stops pretty frequently to run a cleaning cycle (meaning about twice per 40" print) as if it knows something is not quite right. Am I hurting the other printheads or using a lot of extra ink with these cleaning cycles?
Thanks for your input!
