See if changing this setting helps: Right-click on your printer, choose
Printing Preferences, then Color Options tab, then Advanced Options
button. Check "Use Pure Black." (You can also set this via Printer
Properties> Advanced> Printing Defaults> Color Options> Advanced
Options, which might be the way to set it permanently. I don't remember.)
Here's from Xerox help:
Advanced Options Dialog Box
* sRGB Neutral Grays: Select how the printer creates black and grays
when using an sRGB color correction:
o Automatic Black: Only uses black toner or ink for black and gray
text and line art. Uses composite black for the black and gray
portions of photos and images.
o Use Pure Black: Only uses black toner or ink for black and gray
portions of photos, images, and text.
o Use Composite Black: Always uses composite black (a mixture of
cyan, magenta, and yellow toner or ink) for the black and gray
portions of text, line art, photos, and images.

Hi Framers,
Several grayscale image files in my FM 11 document appear tinted
slightly purple when output through my color Xerox printer. (They
appear correct on-screen.) Looks as though it only happens to .tif
files. The files were output from Photoshop CS6 or 5; they are
definitely grayscale with no layers. This doesn't happen with .eps
photos.
A saved PDF appears to print correctly--there is no tint to these same
images.
