Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.#3: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 5, 2019 [HINT]
After Line and Color Logic leave only black in c3-6 and c11-15,#4: Jota (jota) on Jan 9, 2019
No matter where the 3 in c3 goes, c4r1 will be blacK.
LL
Deep Edge Logic 3 r8 (vs r10): If it were to go all the way left, there would be not enough room for the 1,1 in r10. Therefore r8c11 must be white.
LL to finish.
Again! Great!#5: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Mar 22, 2021

Great puzzle and a wonderful tribute to Jan.
I solved it logically, yet quite deep logic at times.
