HP B8850 Grayscale Printing Issues / Beta 2 / Mac OS 10.5.8

I'm not doing something right but I cannot figure it out. I'm trying to print in grayscale with Harman Gloss FB AI paper. I'm choosing the ICC for this paper in lightroom in the print - color management section. Then under the print dialog box, I choose Paper Type / Quality and there should be a "color" pop-up menu in which I can choose grayscale. However, this no longer appears once I choose this ICC. The Color matching section in the "print" dialog box is set to "colorsync" by default and I cannot change this. If I choose to let my printer manage the profile under color management in lightroom, it allows me to choose greyscale. However, that's not going to work since I want to match my paper with an ICC. What am I doing wrong? I've done this in the past and cannot figure out what changed.

 

The reason I need to choose grayscale is because I'm printing black and white and I want my printer only to use black and grey inks. If it uses the color inks, I get a purple tint. I've called HP and they couldn't help.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
