Batch plotting has started to plot in color- AutoCAD LT

I have autocad lt 2023.  I batch plot all the time and have my plot style saved which is in black and white.  When I print a single page, it's fine.  But all of a sudden, my batch plotting has started to only plot in color even though I am selecting my saved plot style.  Any ideas on how to fix??  So annoying.

@keedesigns A CONSISTENT PUBLISH RULE OF THUMB:
1. Start PUBLISH command from a drawing that is not part of the publish set, but is configured with all your possible sheets and plotter options.
2. Bring in all the other drawings/tabs to be published.
3. Import the pagesetup desired from the template file (in your case, one set up for exacting desired output).
4. PUBLISH.

 

Just remember, CTB plot style tables have no effect on DWG files with TRUECOLORS or ones set up to output to STB files only.

could you do the following screenshots & share them here:

1. Plot window when you do a single page print

2. Publish window when you batch plot
