Why Are My Black And White Pictures Coming Out Blue Looking On Glossy Paper?

I have a S405 Lexmark printer.  The black ink is full, but the colors are all low.  Images wouldn't help as they show up black and white on the computer.

If I understand correctly you are getting a pure black. This probably due to low ink levels. If replacing low ink cartridge does not fix it, go here for latest firmware & drivers:
