Is there a decent amateur printer to make black and white digital photos?

There are some “pro” printers, made by Epson and others, that make very good black and white prints from digital photos. But they cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars, well beyond my budget.

The usual home printers and printer docks that I’ve seen in the $100 dollar range do well with color photos, but just can’t make a decent black and white print - they appear “washed out” (low contrast) and have a bluish cast instead of making true black.

Is it just having a printer that has the proper optimization to do black and white, or is there some software manipulations(s) I can try?
