I'm trying to print B&W from Photoshop - Printer controls color - on Canon Pixma Pro-1. When I go to the Print settings/color options, it shows black and white is selected but the ability to brighten/darken the setting is greyed out. I'm using Mac OSX Maverick and have the latest printer driver/firmware loaded in the printer/computer.
I have heard that it is better to select "Prnter manage colors" selection over "photoshop manages colors" for black and white - as photoshop will use more of the color inks to create black-and-white instead of using the gray/blacks that come with the printer.
Any suggestions in printing black and white from a Canon Pixma Pro-1 printer? If using "Printer controls color" then do you get the same grayed out section in "Color options" settings?
