B&W Printing on i9950 Canon Printer

[Hot Opal]

I am having trouble printing "True Black" on my new i9950.
I have tried setting the printer to Greyscale and also just leaving it on colour.
Neither print a true black.
It appears that colours are being use to print the black.
I am using Canon Pro Paper.
Am I doing something wrong???
Is anyone else having this problem?
Can anyone offer advice?
Regards,

In case you are using Mac you can try printing through iPhoto after processing.
Good luck

Thanks for the replies.
Sorry Deeply I am using a PC.
John that is a great link thank you, however it still uses colours.
Surely there is a way to turn off the colours and only print with black ink.
I was always taught that white contained all colours and black was the absence of colour!
There must be a way to stop the colour cartridges coming into play.
Surely some printing guru has an idea.
