You selected   "set term post eps monochrome"
so all the colors became black.

If you instead say "set term post eps color" the result
may be closer to what you intended.

The fact that postscript/eps defaults to monochrome is an
unfortunate historical artifact.  Version 5 left it that way
for backwards compatibility, but at least for me it is _always_
correct to say "set term post color" - even if I want grayscale as 
it seems you want for your plot.
