Hi there,
I have recently udated my MBA to Mountain Lion. However, the office printer, Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C1190 FS does not print PDF documents in colour. Is there some specific settings need to be done prior to printing?
Thanks in advance.

I am a novice and am still trying to find a way to adopt the new Mac OS environment.
There are several options to choose for in the Adobe Reader printing dialog, and apparently, there is neither black & white nor colour options in the advanced print setup which is very different from Windows.
In the Advanced Print Setup dialog window, there are several tickboxes available to opt for. Under the "Postscript options" category, there is a "Discolour background option" for selection, other options are also included in the "colour management" category, as follow:
Other independent options also include "Print as image" and "Simulate overprinting" under the categories mentioned above.
I've tried all, but none of the combination settings was successful.
Cheers.
Also check that you are not using the Generic PCL Laser Printer driver included with Mountain Lion. This driver will only print in black and white.
If you open System Preferences > Print & Scan, select the Xerox and in the right pane, you will see some information about the printer, such as Location, Kind and Status. If Kind is showing Generic PCL Laser, then this is the cause. You can delete this printer and select to add again, this time choosing the Xerox driver or the Generic Postscript driver which is also included with 10.8.
Thank you very much. The solution works.
Cheers.
Is Black and White activated in Print?
Open a file with Preview and print from it. Turn off Black and White
This also worked for me I have Fuji Xeroz Docuprint 3300 DX.
Had the same problem(only printing black and white) but now it is printing color perfectly!
