    Great timing. I have just ready your ebook on printing and had made notes on modes etc. I didn't get the impression that it would be so different for the black and white printing. I'll have to watch again and make some new notes but thanks this was very useful.

    Thank you very much for this. B & W is what I am into and I am looking at Canon printers so this was spot on. Question. If one was only to print B & W how dose that effect the ink usage ie Is the full range used or do the black / greys only need replacing? Cheers

    Thank you for the feedback! Printing in B&W actually still uses the full set of inks as it mixes colours to create the correct tones

    I have always used the Canon professional print & layout software for colour and black & white prints, since purchasing the Pro-300 earlier this year. What are your thoughts for using Canons own software for black & white printing?

    Most software will use the printers built in driver, so you should get the same results in the Canon software as you would in Photoshop if applying all the settings mentioned in the video. If you're a Mac user you may find it easier using the professional print and layout software so that you know you're definitely using the Canon printer driver and not AirPrint. If you're happy with the results you're getting with the Canon software, we say keep doing what you're doing!

    Why does Canon call Grayscale, 'B&W', is there a technical reason for this? Most printers and PS call B&W, grayscale? Also bizarrely, the Canon program will not open a file that is 'grayscale' It will only let you open it if you re mode it to RGB although it's grayscale is colours?

    The term grayscale is a mode within photography describing the conversion of an image to black and white tones and removing all colour layers. Black and White (or monochrome) is the correct term as grayscale can only be set within programs. In the darkroom days, it was always called 'black and white' or 'monochrome' printing - it was never called grayscale printing. All digital images are generally captured in your camera as colours (RGB) by default even if they are pure black and white objects. Those colour layers are what the black and white mode of your printer uses in its software to convert into better tones and final images, controlling the distribution of the grey inks within the printer
