Probably because there is a parameter missing in

/var/spool/lpd/XXX/postscript.cfg

(replace XXX with the name of the queue you created.)

Look in postscript.cfg there should be a line which reads something like...

COLOR=-dBitsPerPixel=24
PAPERSIZE=letter

If the "COLOR=" line is empty, this is your problem.

It should contain the color depth parameter... the above may work for you...

Remember to restart the lpd daemon!
