Daryl, 

You could print with the "print in black and white" option checked, which, I believe, forces printing with only the black cartridge. But you'll lose detail and tonal gradation. 

The fact is it's very difficult to get pure grays (without color tinting) when printing with all inks -- not just via PressReady but also with native drivers. 

Take care with your viewing light source, as well. Some tints disappear (or at least change) when you, for example, view under daylight. 

Sounds like you might be using the newer "Chinese" inks for the Epson. I had the same problem with my 1270/PressReady setup when I ran out of Japanese inks. Things definitely went magenta on me. 

I solved the problem by editing the PressReady media profiles using ColorVision's Doctor Pro -- admittedly not an inexpensive solution if you don't already have Doctor Pro and Photoshop.
