Before Lightroom I used Ken's Photoshop Fill technique. It's really the way to go.

You could also try using QTR - www.harrington.com - to make your black and white prints if your printer is supported by QTR (most are). QTR allows you to use up to three different curves on the highlights, midtones, and shadows to produce effects ranging from warm to cold to tone your prints.
