Color v. B&W printer profiles, one printer, two icons?

I have a HP2600n color LaserJet. The HP driver makes it farily simple to
select between black & white / greyscale and color printing. However, this
selection box is still three clicks in to the printer properties menu and not
always obvious.

Under Windows XP, is there a way to effectively install this printer twice
(so two icons show on the control panel & print selection windows for the
same printer)? I would like to do this in such a manner that one 2600n
"printer" -- the default -- is B&W/greyscale, and the alternate is color.

This would make selecting color versus black and white extremely simple, and
extremely obvious, the moment the print dialogue box pops up.
 
Pinkie,
I have the same question, different printer.
I wonder if it is recommended to install the printer twice?
Or will this cause problems?
Hopefully someone can respond.
