iProof PowerRIP allows you to print combinations of color and BW without
metamerism in the same image since it uses the same printing mode for BW
and color. I would say the dots in the highlights are slightly more
visible, and the the tone is not as dead neutral as in Imageprint.
However, it will reduce the metamerism like imageprint does, and you can
affect the tone as much as you want to by using any of the usual image
manipulation tools.

They have a free evaluation on their website that prints watermarked
images:

Use 2880dpi resolution for best results.

It's fairly easy to install and use.
