Grayscale

Grayscale is a black and white monochrome that uses only different shades of gray. These prints with different shades of gray are commonly called black and whites in the photography industry, while the design industry favors the term grayscale. Monochrome printing images instead of using grayscale will use more ink. This is because a monochrome image uses colors to produce blacks and whites. By comparison, using grayscale uses only the black ink cartridge to print greys.
