Tom is correct. I posed the same question a couple of years ago and Graeme
replied that you cannot generate a gray scale profile. You can generate a
patch set and read it using Argyll and then plug the results into Roy
Harrington’s QTR scripting program. That will generate a profile that you can
use with Epson printers that have an ABW driver. I have used targen to
generate both a 21 and 51 step B/W patch set for profile generation. One note
if you go down this route, the profiles are only good if you are running a
Windows OS. MacOS will not permit you to allow Photoshop/Lightroom to manage
colors with the ABW driver.

Hi Alexey
I am using modified method from
http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/bw_printing/bw_print_colormunki.html
Works perfect with Argyll and QTR.
Cheers
Tom

Hi!
Look here: http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/Limitations.html
I think that argyllcms does not support gray scale (monochrome) profiles yet.
Best regards,

Hello!
Is there any possibility to create grayscale ICC profile with ArgyllCMS?
I tried to create ti3 according to ti3 file generated by "targen -d0" and then
fakeread from it but without success.
I'm getting Error - Output device input file has unhandled color representation
'K_XYZ'.
What's wrong am I doing?
My ti3 file attached.
Best regards,
Alexey Gribunin.
