The way to solve the issue of using colors to print grayscale is to ensure the image is grayscale to begin with. That requires some form of photo editing software. Or you have to force your printer dialog to use only black ink. Something some printers do not allow.

Not sure what ol' Rufus means, but converting an image to grayscale and ensuring the color dialog uses 'black' and not 'registration' (or reg. black) will use only black ink. I've done it 1000's of times in my newspaper business.

The 'Registration' black option WILL print grayscale using make-up coloring. Meaning using all colors combined to image black.
