Why the scanning thing happens, I have no idea. I had not read the law it may be so broad “Devices that can print are not allowed to function without the ability to print the colour dots” that they must be disabled until they can print colour.
The printer wouldn’t even scan without ink though.
I’m also not in the USA.
