Never thought about trying such a thing, but maybe editing the PPD of
the "B&W" printer so that it mimics a similar non-color capable
printer and therefore doesn't offer color options.

Perhaps the proper approach is "severe administrative penalties"
accompanied by logging. IE: "You're not allowed to print in colour, if
you print in colour anyway, you'll get sanctioned, then fired". If
that's not an option, I think ppd hacking might be the best option.
