This section describes the procedure for printing a color document or monochrome photo in grayscale.
To print in grayscale, you can either use color ink for subtle color adjustments, or use only black or gray ink to print monochrome photos the way you want them.
When printing in grayscale using only black or gray ink, you cannot adjust grayscale color tones.

Check the Black and White Photo Print check box.
Complete the setup
Click Print.
When you execute print, the document is converted to grayscale data. It allows you to print the color document in monochrome.
Grayscale Printing Using Only Black and Gray Ink
To print in grayscale using only black and gray ink, you need to add Photo Paper (Grayscale Printing) or Fine Art Paper (Grayscale Print) as a new paper type using the Media Configuration Tool in advance, and update the printer driver's media information by selecting Media Information from the Canon IJ Printer Utility2.
