This sounds like a printer driver issue to me.

A true RIP would not be using a printer driver.

In reference to PSCS5 no longer having the No Color Management settings, which seemed to have been a knee-jerk response to improperly written printer drivers at the time PSCS5 was being written.

There are no profiles applied in the driver when printing B&W to Canon iPF printers so I don't see this as an OS problem.

Keith Cooper reviewed both the iPF6100 and iPF8300 and used QTR B&W profiling to get better tone separation in the B&W modes. He did that from a Mac system and used the same trick I proposed some time ago.

See:

and more reviews there.
