While if I put color=cgcolor('black'), the points are black but the axes are still cyan. I would like to set the background and the color once at the beginning before calling cgplot. Is this possible?

Not sure if it's causing your specific problem but be careful. Use this:
IDL> cgPLOT, dist(10), COLOR='black'

and *not*
IDL> cgPLOT, dist(10), COLOR=cgCOLOR('black')
