Bug#642960: foomatic-db: Xerox Phaser 6180MFP-D Foomatic/Postscript PPD file should have color but is grayscale instead



Package: foomatic-db
Version: 20100630-1
Severity: normal


I have a Xerox Phaser 6180MFP printer that is hooked up over the
network.  I am setting up a new printer and am expecting to select the
"MFP" variety of the printer and see that it is set up properly to
print color. When I add a new printer and select this make:

Xerox Phaser 6180MFP-D Foomatic/Postscript

then the printer prints in grayscale which is not correct since it
does have color capability. However, if I select this instead:

Xerox Phaser 6180 Foomatic/Postscript (recommended)

It is able to print in color.

Since this is a MFP printer, I believe the act of selecting "Xerox
Phaser 6180MFP-D Foomatic/Postscript" should provide color
capabilities.
