Q: Can I adjust print settings when I use AirPrint?

Hi

I have a MFC-J430W Brother printer set up for Airprint.

When I use Airprint on my ipads or iphones it always comes out in color.

Is there a way to adjust my print settings when using my mobile devices?

I wasn't sure where to place this question. Since the printer is connected to my iMac I am parking it here.

Brother support is underwhelming. But I've noticed the same limitation with other brand Airprint printers.

Thanks

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2), iPhoto 9.5.1

Printing from an iOS device does not give you controls for the print, all you can do is send something to the AirPrint printer. AirPrint is a pretty fundamental level print system.
