Are you CERTAIN that below the box with the command lpr, you don't at
least get to select between grey-scale and color? For the quality, for
my HP Deskjet 670c (using the Deskjet 550, 560C,6xxC, etc. ), I selected
the color quality within printtool when I set it up. You can edit it
later. Where you have the printer, highlight it, and the is a box with
something like input filter, and a button which says "SELECT"; if you
press that, you should get a whole bunch of options for the settings,
you can try some of these (I selected "best quality"). Of course, you
have to run printtool as root.
Hope this helps.
