Hi, the exact instructions will depend on your operating system and print driver, but in general, you'll have to open your print driver's properties or preferences (in Windows, do this through the Control Panel) and for the color option, set it to Black & White or Monochrome, and then save the change.  Now, whenever you print, it will default to black and white.
