can't get color printing to work


Greetings:

I have just installed and configured apsfilter 6.0.0_6 in conjunction with
ghostscript 6.50_4, on FreeBSD 4.3 BETA and have a Hewlett-Packard DeskJet
670C printer, and have selected the correct ghostscript driver for my
printer.

I am very pleased to have it working and printing both plain ascii text
files and PostScript files as well, neither of which I could do before
installing apsfilter.

However I cannot seem to get it to print in color. I have tried both the
default color setting and several of the available color depths 16bpp and
24 bpp but I still get colors as grayscale.

I am definately selecting color on the applications which generate the PS
documents. The debugging log shows:
+ unset option
+ [  = mono ]
+ COLOR=set MONO=
+ [  ]

I am not sure how to interpret it.

I tried searching 'color' in the mailing list archives, but the search
retunred every instance of a file with 'color' in the HTML tags.

Any suggestions would be very welcome.
