I tried evaluating
(require 'ansi-color)
(setq ansi-color-for-comint-mode t)
and then starting a Maxima process in Emacs, but still I had no
problems. Are there any other ansi-color customizations that you have
in your .emacs file? Do you get the same problem if you start emacs
with
emacs -Q
loading the ansi-color stuff, loading the maxima stuff, and starting a
Maxima process?
