Digital BW, The Print

Rick, 

The best solution will be dedicating a printer to b/w. There are 
several great b/w inksets in both dye and pigment forms, and 
available in carts or bulk. If you're printing on glossy surfaces you 
may want to consider a dye based ink like the Lyson Quad Black or 
Small Gamut inks. If printing on a glossy surface is not important, 
you may consider the MIS VM inkset.
