Any possibility to have a look at these ? :)

If you are working on a nice VTK application, feel free to send me a link 
so that I might add it to :

Paul gave you some insights. Actually what I do is much simpler, just a 
screenshot :) Hit the "Print Screen" key, than paste the screen into 
Photoshop (or use a decent screenshot software, which allows you to grab 
just a window). Using a 1200x1000 screen resolution, this gives pretty good 
results on our color or B&W laser printer, I've just sent a publication 
with VTK illustrations built that way.

Photoshop will do the trick. Convert to grayscale, and play with 
contrast/brightness/histogram.
