"monochrome" is default:

,----
| set terminal postscript eps enhanced 20
| Terminal type set to 'postscript'
| Options are 'eps enhanced defaultplex \
| =A0 =A0leveldefault monochrome colortext \
| =A0 =A0dashed dashlength 1.0 linewidth 1.0 butt \
| =A0 =A0palfuncparam 2000,0.003 \
| =A0 =A0"Helvetica" 20 '
`----

Say "help set terminal postcript" to gnuplot and it'll spew (= among other things):


,----
| =A0`default` sets all options to their defaults: `landscape`, `monochrome= `,
| =A0`dashed`, `dl 1.0`, `lw 1.0`, `defaultplex`, `noenhanced`, "Helve= tica" and
| =A014pt. =A0Default size of a PostScript plot is 10 inches wide and 7 inc= hes high.
| =A0The option `color` enables color, while `monochrome` prefers black and= white
| =A0drawing elements. Further, `monochrome` uses gray `palette` but it doe= s not
| =A0change color of objects specified with an explicit `colorspec`.
| =A0`solid` draws all plots with solid lines, overriding any dashed patter= ns.
| =A0`dashlength` or `dl` scales the length of the dashed-line segments by = <DL>,
| =A0which is a floating-point number greater than zero.
| =A0`linewidth` or `lw` scales all linewidths by <LW>.
