The Adobe ColorModel option and ColorDevice attribute can be used,
however Foomatic drivers don't follow the standard and use other
other option names.

You're probably better off defining a list of options and choices that
override the default color mode of a printer, e.g. default to the
ColorDevice true/false value and then update the color state based on
option selections.
