I think we need to address the case of grayscale printing on a color 
device. I know of devices that always print in color unless grayscale data 
is sent. What if we added a DeviceFeature attribute on the ColorMode 
element to indicate if the driver needs to create the grayscale data or if 
the command sequence will cause the device to do the grayscaling?
