Sounds like you're approaching it incorrectly. I had to do a similar
thing for a class I took some years ago. The goal was to make a viewer
for a fax TIFF image. The approach I used was to break the b/w image
into 4x4 or 8x8 blocks, then count the number of dark pixels and based
on that, assign that to a grayscale level. It worked, but was quite
slow.
ImageMagick has some utilities that do similar things.
