    If the printer was created using Apple's AirPrint driver, then when you select to print you will see a B&W setting in the print dialog as shown below.

    If the MG61xx printer was created using the Canon driver, then you will need to change to the Quality & Media menu and select Grayscale as shown below.

    Note that to see this menu, you will have to select Show Details in the Apple print dialog.
