I am printing art work which is a mix of greyscale and colour in the
one print. This is out of Photoshop CS to an Epson 1290S and I am
unable to get a really good black and white rendition of the grayscale
portions. I can separate the parts of the image into colour and
greyscale to separate layers and print separately in two passes but the
alignment is not accurate enough so I have to print the lot in colour
and the greyscale portions take on a dark greenish cast. I can correct
this to some extent manipulating hue and saturation but I just do not
get the clear black white and grey that come from a normal printing in
black and white. Essentially Photoshop needs to tell the printer to
use just black ink (K) on its own for those parts of the print and not
to even try to make it up with CMY. I am sure Photoshop is clever
enough for this but I am not.
Can anyone out there help please?
