Printing in black and white from rear tray on Canon G6020

I am trying to print monochromatically on glossy photo paper on the Canon G6020. Since I am using specialty paper, I must use the rear tray. However, when I print with the appropriate settings, I can tell that CMY inks are being used despite specifying to print in black and white only. It is critical for me to print on glossy paper using only K (black) ink, is this possibly to do from the rear tray?

Hi,

I checked and even though you can set the printer to use Black ink only, when the following settings are specified, Black Only does not function because the printer uses an ink other than black to print documents.

Other than Plain Paper, Envelope, Ink Jet Hagaki (A), Hagaki K (A), Hagaki (A), or Hagaki is selected for Media Type on the Main tab
Borderless is selected from the Page Layout list on the Page Setup tab

Since you are using Glossy paper, the Black ink only setting will not be applied.
