Color Printing with local printer

My user needs to be able to print in color to her color HP LaserJet,
but the Terminal Server shows the printer as being a LaserWriter that
only does black and white. She can print fine, but just black and
white. How do I allow printing in color? Not getting much support from
the staff on the terminal server side of things, so I need more
information before going to them; they tend to chalk it up to a crappy
Mac thing.

I have tired with both the beta and previous release and see the same
behavior on both. Is there a way to force the correct driver? Of
course everything works fine when using a pc, the printer shows up
with the correct driver (HP Color LaserJet 2500).

Hi Ryan!

The only idea I can think of is to make sure the server has the correct
PPD selected for the printer.

Hope this helps!
