You can change the 2300's menu setting to ignore empty toner cartridges and keep printing. There are 2 steps:

Step 1:

Press Menu/Select, then "right arrow" until you see ENGINE. Press Menu/Select again and then "right arrow" until you see TONER EMPTY. Press Menu/Select and you'll see STOP. Press "right arrow" once to change to CONTINUE. Press Menu/Select.

Step 2:

Press "right arrow" until you see AUTO CONTINUE. If set to ON, press the "Cancel" button and you're ready to print. If set to OFF, press Menu/Select, then right arrow to change to ON, then Menu/Select to enter. It will say "ON IS SELECTED." Then press the "Cancel" button and you're ready to print.

    Other models of Konica Minolta have the same option but usually hidden somewhere in the menu system. Their sensor is calibrated to favor them so you will still have plenty of toner left. Why waste it?

Since it checks all the colors to work, you will need to replace the Yellow toner.

I have a konica minolta c250i, the magenta is not printing on the paper, it print out as yellow. other colors are perfectly ok

There are several reasons why your Konica Minolta C250i printer may be printing magenta as yellow. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check the magenta toner cartridge: Make sure that the magenta toner cartridge is properly installed and has enough toner. If the toner cartridge is low or empty, replace it with a new one.
  2. Clean the printer heads: Use the printer's cleaning function to clean the printer heads. This can help remove any clogs or buildup that may be preventing the magenta ink from flowing properly.
  3. Check the printer settings: Check the printer settings to make sure that the correct paper type and color settings are selected. If the printer is set to print in grayscale or black and white mode, it may not use the magenta ink.
  4. Perform a firmware update: Make sure that your printer has the latest firmware installed. Sometimes firmware updates can fix issues with printing quality.
  5. Contact Konica Minolta support: If none of the above steps solve the issue, you may need to contact Konica Minolta support for further assistance. They may be able to diagnose the issue remotely or send a technician to your location.
I hope these steps help you resolve the issue.

Yellow deposit

Remove the Yellow Drum unit, Check the drum for any toner. The drums should be clean and I believe a Green color. If you see any toner on the yellow unit replace the unit. Some models have a charge cleaner built into the image units, if that is the case with yours you will see a light blue knob on the front of the unit. Pull this knob in and out about 5 times to clean the units charger this may correct the problem without replacing the yellow image unit.

Minolta 2430dl, cyan, magenta, and yellow toner cartridges all show empty. Black shows 42% remaining. How do I get printer to print?

Some printers will refuse to print _anything_, until you replace/refill _all_ of the empty toner cartridges. So, replace/refill.

Konika Minolta 2430 DL won't let me print

Look through the menus on the printer for a setting for "Low Toner" -- the choices of what to do are usually either "continue" or "stop" or something similar (my 2430DL has this option setting) -- set this option to "Continue".
My 15 year old HPs also have a similar setting. However, this will keep it printing when the black runs out, so you will need to check your print production run visually as you go along to make sure the quality is what you need
