Default Epson RX500 Black and White

Vista Home Premium.
Epson RX500 drivers install autmatically since it is USB.

Cannot find how to force it to print in Black and White.
The only reference I can find is under Advanced ... which says Click
Greyscale...it works if you want Greyscale but not if you want true black
and white.

How do you set the printer to print in Black and White and not Color?

I have also seen references on the web to XP SP2 compatibility mode...but
have yet to see how that can be set...any help greatly appreciated.

Just because it's a USB device doesn't mean it automatically installs! You
should ALWAYS check at the website of the device manufacturer, in this case
www.epson.com

As it happens, Epson has rewritten the drivers for this printer for Vista.
Now you must uninstall and reinstall your printer after downloading the
drivers. Although written for XP, the instructions are the same as at:
