I use the following code pattern to write image pixels to the PS printer in
my c++,

%!

%%Example 10

100 200 translate

32 38 scale

32 38 8 [32 0 0 -38 0 38]

{<

false 3 colorimage

for this small image size, it's ok, but when I increase the size a bit, like
100 by 100,

the print out stripped horizontally,

I send each line as string to the PS printer.

I even tried to cut each hex string line shorter, still get a bad output
print,
