Thanks again. I have some work to do with viewscan (which I use with B&W
35mm scans) but I think I have thing together for digital and medium
format scanning (done with Nikon scan.) When I tone B&W film shots I
convert them to RGB and I convert all of them to RGB for web display.

Happy to help.
If you're going to work in pure B&W, the defaults—Dot Gain 20%, etc—all work
well, presuming that you've captured the entire dynamic range that the exposure has
to offer.
I do all my processing with LR these days, which promotes everything to 16bit
per component and ProPhoto RGB. This is useful since I often add a light bit of
warm 'toning' to my images.
As Paul said, the Epson print drivers do a good job printing directly from ProPhoto RGB to
B&W. You can also add the warming tones with the Epson print driver using its "Advanced
B&W Mode" printing workflow, but I like to display my photos with the warming tone on
flickr et cetera.
