I may have missed something key, here.  After doing my BW conversion 
in Photoshop and all other adjustments, should I be saving a 
grayscale version of the file by going to Image, mode, grayscale and 
send a grayscale image to the printer?

Have been doing lots of experimentation.  Feels like my house is 
being overrun by 4x6 B&W printouts!
