I've had no problems with color at all, once I got the printer working.
Did you run the commands I suggested after you got the updates? Although
if it is printing at all, it would seem you did.
I'm using the stp driver, and I accepted the default settings.
Here's my output from escputil
[root@paradox root]# escputil -dq -r /dev/par0
@EJL ID
MFG:EPSON;CMD:ESCPL2,BDC;MDL:Stylus COLOR 880;CLS:PRINTER;DES:EPSON
Stylus COLOR 880;
