Oh, that's better!  I still don't know how, so I'll let you go ahead
with it - then I'll know.

Yes, the color settings will have their own page.  The initial page will
have the printer selection, media size/source/etc, resolution.  I'm
debating whether to put the preview stuff on that page or on its own
page.  Suggestions welcome.  Another page will have things like dither
selection, image type (color - the default, greyscale, line), and other
miscellaneous things that a casual or new user won't change much.  It
shouldn't be too hard to check the printer type and add any extra stuff
on a new page if the driver maintainer wanted to.  We just need to be
careful not to go too wild.
