Not quite sure what you want here. Try some of these:
Import image.
Delete it.
Goto bitmap gallery
Select deleted bitmap from the gallery
Select Plug-ins (you don't have to have any)
Select bitmap effects
Select colour depth
You've got 3 different mono effects, 1 greyscale and some others
The example is a mono (bayer)

The posted image looks different than the image in Xara. I expect this is because I exported the image as a jpg and its altered the mono images section to greyscale (?)

Once you've converted the image to mono / greyscale, you can "contone" it by left and or right clicking on the colour line. Look up 'contoning' in the Xara help file.

I just realised that you don't actually need to convert the bitmap to mono unless you want use the effect created by doing that. Just contoning the image will automatically use a greyscale version.

Thank you for your quick replies!
Sorry for not making myself clear in the original question.
I am not trying to do monochrome or grayscale. I thought of using an existing image (modified to a single color)as a background and want to make it just slightly darker than the page backgound color. This would then give the effect of a dill watermark for lack of a better analogy.
Does that help any?

Thank you Sean and Egg!
I guess this is what I am looking for in my poor description. It indicates using two colors and I think I understand the Contone definition page. I will try that and let you know my results.
Thanks again!

It appears contoning to get a sepia effect will work for a drawing done in XaraX but what I am looking for is to take a photograph and apply the effect to this photograph.
Thanks for all you assistance.

Don't see what the problem is.
Import photo
left or right click on colour on colour bar
voila sepia
