Printing Postscript Files on Postscript Printers

Should work if you are not using a Mac, are you?

Most (all?) of the time when I print a postscript file on a colour
postscript printer, if I tell the printer driver to print black and white
it normally ignores me and prints in colour anyway. I presume it is just
printing the postscript file as is and ignoring my instructions, is there
a way to get round it and force it to print black and white. (It will
allow me to scale down to print several pages on one page).

Printers concerned Xerox Phaser 8200 over USB (Postscript 3)
Canon CLC 950 via Fiery XJ over network (Postscript 2)

No, the Xerox is plugged into a WinMe machine, the Canon into an XP Home
machine.
