What printer model is this and what PPD is being used?
Sharp MX-4141N and using the PPD that is built into the policy that is pushed out from Google Admin. I'm also attaching the PPD used when selecting a custom PPD to use for native printer setup.

My test were done with the generic PS printer

The Generic PS printer doesn't contain any colormodel information to indicate to the printer what color space the document should be printed in.  What was left off of that bug was that we obtained the PPD for the printer in question.

Closing this issue as Won't Fix as it's due to support for a specific printer model - I've logged an internal bug to track adding support for this printer on Chrome OS (b/123256669).
