I used the bjc600 driver a few years ago and had fair color results (everything was a bit dark) on a mpc-2500, which is equivalent to a bjc4100 plux fax. I was using gs-aladdin rather than gs, if that makes any difference (it usually has more advanced stuff in it). I remember hearing that Red Hat had a version of gs which wouldn't print color with the bjc600 driver and that turned out to be an error made when the packager compiled it. Possibly the same thing happened here. I understand that configuring the compilation is somewhat tricky.
