The Epson Scan software gives the choices of black and white and grayscale
settings. What's the diff b/w these two settings? I've been using grayscale so
far for b&w photos, with good results.

Black and white is exactly that - just black and white with no grey in
between, which is fine for diagrams, drawings and other line art, but
not for photos or other continuous tone media, which require greyscale.

If you had tried this with some black and white photos then the results
you obtained would have been self explanatory, making your question
obsolete.
