Yes, but at a more simple level (one of the main points of BO
printing is to help newbies get started with minimal frustration),
I'd answer: after you select "Black Only" you'll get a warning
that it's suitable only for text; ignore this, and then
go to "Advanced Settings" and bump the resoultion up to 1440 or
2880dpi.
