If one of the colour catridge is empty or damaged, willthe printer will not do the printing jobs at all?

You haven't indicated make and model of your printer. Now, MY HP has been acting really weird when the head was damaged after a refill.
If your printer has a color and a black cartridge, check them removing one at a time. Sometimes after removing the damaged cartridge, the printes works, so all you should do is buy a new cartridge,

You need to find the Color Options Features Tab; choose greyscale or Black Only.

1) The Brother printer is structured in such a way that it will stop all the printing operations if any one of the ink cartridges are empty.

2) If the printer continues printing inspite of having anyone empty cartridge then the cleaning cycles would suck air from the empty cartridge.

3) This would damage the print head.
However, the black and white print mode can operate exceptionally well when the cartridges are empty.

Go into Printers, Properties, Printing Preferences, then Black Ink Only. If you make that the default, it will automatically print black ink with you click on the printer in the toolbar. If you want to print one document in color, click on File, Print, Properties, and set it for color for that one job only. The default of Black Ink should stay the same.
