Phobius plot - unrecognized terminal option

I installed Phobius and it's working fine, but when I add option -png it doesn't make any plot and prints in terminal:

set terminal png transparent small color xffffff                         x000000 x000000 xA0A0A0 x00CF00                         x0000FF x66CCCC x0000FF xFF0000
                                   ^
"./aaaa.gnuplot", line 24: unrecognized terminal option

Do i need to change some settings in gnuplot or install something more or anything else?

As far as I can see there is not such option "color" in gnuplot: http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/docs_4.2/node409.html

 set terminal png 
        {{no}transparent} {{no}interlace}
        {{no}truecolor} {rounded|butt}
        {tiny | small | medium | large | giant}
        {font <face> {<pointsize>}}
        {size <x>,<y>} {{no}crop}
        {{no}enhanced}
        {<color0> <color1> <color2> ...}

i would say it's a problem with the tool that generated the gnuplot script.

I've deleted the 'color' option in the line and it works! Thank you very much.
