Grey scale, on your display?

If that is the case, then check the Accessibility preference pane. There is a checkbox for greyscale. Just uncheck it.

I do not see an option to uncheck grayscale. In fact, I can't find anything that says grayscale.

The Generic PCL driver included with OS X will print in grayscale. To check what driver you are using, open Printers & Scanner and select the printer. Then in the right panel you will see an entry labelled Kind. This will show what printer driver you are using for this printer.
