Comments

The IsColorDevice field has proven to be somewhat misleading for printers like the HP DeskJet 600C when the black cartridge is loaded. The 600C reports itself (or once did) as a color device because it can perform gray-scaling. In every case we return the hardware capabilities as they are reported by the hardware driver.
