To print always in black & white, you will need to change a couple of settings in the print dialogue that opens when you select print.
1 - In the print window select Advanced, the first options should be for Output, where it says Color you will need to change that setting to Composite Gray in the drop down menu.
2 - In the same Advanced settings window you should find a drop down at the top that says Custom, with a button next to it that says Save As...
Save the setting you have just changed and name it something you will understand i.e. - Black/White. With this new setting selected click OK.
3 - Back in the original Print window is a menu called Presets... again select Save As and name it something you understand. With that Preset select Save As and name it something you understand.

Now when ever you need to print Black and White just select Present you have created in the Print Window and then Print. The setting should all remain and your Print will be in Black and White.
