Color printing

[richardczeiger]

Hi there, :)
I've set the default color profile on the "Printer Preferences" to COLOR and not Black & White.
Printing in color now happens automatically. However, I would like to print some documents in B&W and save money.
For the PHP options, I am using:

$options = new stdClass();
$options->bin = 'Tray 2';
$options->color = false;

This successfully prints from Tray 2 (which is not the default).
How can I get it to print B&W? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Response from PrintNode (my bold/italic)):

I have had a look at your latest print jobs and I confirm that the "color" print job option is correctly set to "false". This should result in a B&W printout. I'm not sure why this doesn't work; please make sure that you are using the up-to-date printer drivers obtained from the manufacturer's website.

If this still fails, a workaround is to set up your printer twice in the operating system and change the default printer settings in one of the instances. PrintNode will expose the printer twice and you will be able to print to either one.
