> This update allows users to print with grayscale using color printers.
> Actually, it is not possible to use the "Monochrome" option from the "Color Appearance" panel. Also Chromaticity.MONOCHROME can't be used to print grayscale on color printers ([JDK-8315113](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8315113)).
> 
> **Fix description**
> When a printer supports color printing and a user adds Chromaticity.MONOCHROME attribute to a PrintRequestAttributeSet, then the final printing raster is transformed to the grayscale color using java.awt.image.ColorConvertOp. When the job is a PostScript job, then the "setColor" and "setPaint" methods of the Graphics are overridden, and user colors (paints) are transformed to the grayscale form using the new proxy class GrayscaleProxyGraphics2D.
> 
> This approach is assumed to be platform, CUPS, and IPP protocol independent.
> 
> **Tests**
> The fix was tested on Ubuntu 22.04 and MacOS 12.6.1.
