In this article there will a property Grayscale of the object Picture be reviewed. But why do we need it as there are standard tools of the printer like printing in grayscale? However, you can create a report with pictures in shades of gray and you will not need to switch the printer every time to print grayscale, if you   periodically use color printing.
