Digital BW, The Print

Hi

I'm using a Mac with Pk and have just checked my driver to find this 
BO mode. Under 'Print Settings' - 'Color' there are three modes, 
Color, Advanced B&W Photo and Black. I guess he is talking about this 
mode Black. Under Color Management the only settings that can then be 
changed are gamma, brightness and contrast.

Peter.
