The link below has a number of articles on BW printing, including an
overview that may be helpful.  Getting good BW prints requires good BW
images, so it's a two-sided coin: the photoshop work and the printing
techniques.  This forum focuses mostly on the latter, but feel free to
ask any questions that come up.  There is lots of expertise here.

Regards,
Clayton
