Cannot select color printing #48

Hi,

I have a problem with CUPS printers on Linux/Ubuntu 16.04. When I am printing, I get always Black & White document, because that's the default of the printer. Can I do it somehow?

Thanks.

I add the option for force printing in grayscale, I can add the option for force print in color What printer you are use? Try following:

  1. Copy ppd file for your hardware printer from /etc/cups/ppd directory to somewhere as gray.ppd. In the GUI config change settings to color.
  2. Copy ppd as color.ppd
  3. Send me these files.
