Can't seem to print black only on Epson R220
2005-12-09 by tim_budd79
Hi all I am new to this list. I have an Epson R220 running on a Mac mini with Tiger and Photoshop CS2. I would like to produce some black and white prints on it. After doing much research and reading Clayton Jones' articles on black only printing, I feel that this is was suited for me and gave it a shot the other night. However, I have not managed to print black only. I followed Jones' quick setup steps to print black only but came to a stumbling block. I could not find a quickcheck box for selecting 'black only' in the printer settings menu. I ended up using the greyscale function found in the colour drop down menu thinking that this is the equivalent. But when it finished printing, I checked, and found it had used the colour inks as well. Where is the black only option found. I checked in the printer settings in CS2 print dialog box and had all the other options there that Jones' mentions but not the black only function. Please help Many thanks
