Nik SilverEfex is my go-to for mono work. However On1 effects used to be a free program, and was also good. On1 also used to offer free presets for lightroom.
I have various options which I use. I often use Nik Silver Effex Pro which I downloaded free some years ago. Also I can do the same or similar with one of my Topaz Plug-ins though not free. I use an Epson SC P600 printer which has a specialised B&W mode but toning can easily be added and this is part of the printer driver. I am sure I could also achieve this with LR or PS as well if I needed.
Thank you everyone for your ideas. I really want to tone some of my images but health and other issues kept me from doing so. Maybe this time I will succeed as this is just a personal goal. I am an amateur in every sense of the word. Thank you again.
Thank you Ranger Smith for your suggestion. However, one of the colors I will be using is purple. It makes the blacks more dense and gives the other colors(greys,whites) a similar richness but more limited.
