Digital BW, The Print

Sorry...should have detailed: 

1) 

The gui responds as if a print was made from the desaturated Tiff file
but nothing happens. The file is described by the system as a Tiff (
failure to print is like the failure of an inappropriate type of file
such as jpeg).

2) Tiffs of color images (full color, not desaturated) print as B&W
using QTR..I've done this a lot, previsualizing the B&W from color.

 
3) Desaturated Tiffs print nicely in Black Only, but won't print using
QTRgui.

4) B&W negs scanned to Tiff print properly with QTRgui and of course
with Black Only. 

I've turned the printer off and rebooted the PC but this hasn't helped.
