Epson Printing in Black and White on my Mac

There is no option to select black and white on the print dialog box...I've read multiple workarounds on the Apple community site none of which works for me.

Why is my Epson ET-2600 only printing test pages when connected to iMac? After OS15 update on iMac, Epson ET-2600 printer prints test page but not documents anymore. Computer says "looking for printer" after asking it to print a document. Printer is connected by wifi and utilities says that it is connected/green light shown. I removed Epson software, reinstalled latest Epson driver/software and rebooted both computer and printer. If it prints the test page from instructions sent by the iMac, I know the connection is working. Epson ET-2600 is the default and only printer. Any suggestions. Likely has something to do with software update. Anyone else experiencing this? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

What is happening when you’re trying to select black and white? Isn’t the option completely there? You might need to install a driver for your printer in order to use this function

The printer dialog box does not have a black white option. I’m trying to print a bank statement saved in my documents and the black/white option isn’t visible.
