I use those options all the time for both our farm business as well as pleasure (ie quilting!).
I do the same. But after I print I put in draft, I also click on grayscale and change it to 'use black cartridge only'. It saves using the color cartridge for when we really need it, which isn't very often.
I have set my preferences to black ink only too... it really saves a LOT on having to replace 1/2 empty color cartridges :D:D:D
