Subject: Bug#531858: hpijs: missing a decent color and black default for hp-5600

Package: hpijs
Version: 3.9.4b-1
Severity: normal

hello friends,

thank you for sharing your great work.

in the printer options for an hp-5600 machine, there are 2 printout mode
selection options. the second one would allow using the choice for the
first one, or additional modes.
the first combo shows printout modes that are color-only or black-only,
but not the most useful modes with automatic choice of black or color,
depending on the printed material. this kind of mode may be selected in
the second combobox only.
not only this kind of feature is highly needed, it would be desirable to
make this kind of option the default in the first printout mode combo.

best regards,
alex
