In Document Viewer version 3.10.03, is the color printing capability a function of the driver or a function of Document Viewer itself?

I want to print black only but when hunt for a way to disable color printing in File > Color I see this Printer Profile: Unspecified Profile. There does not appear to be any way to disable color printing, at least on this tab.

I am using Ubuntu 14.04. The file is a .PDF. The driver is for the Canon PIXMA MX494 which was the closest match I found for the actual printer which is an MX492.

To print monochrome go to File > Print > Advanced. Enabling greyscale seems to disable color printing.

In version 3.18: File > Print > Color > Print Color as Gray > On
