problem with digital b/w

2003-08-05 by joonyten

Hello all,
I think I might have posted this question once before, but 
 my life has been to caotic? to follow up.
Anyway try as I may I cant seem to get natural b/w prints 
from my 1280. no matter what i do i always get a little color tone.
I,m using lyson small gamut because of their long-life, and limited
pigment, thinging i could get better b/w's from my printer, but i was
wrong.I'm using photo shop elements software and epson enhanced matt
paper.
I've tryed other papers and every setting imaginable, but still
the prints are not convincing. Being of the traditioal darkroom 
school I dont know much about icc or other sofeware  tone curves.
If anyone out there can clue me in I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
John
