I am attempting to dump sun monochrome screens to my apple
laserwriter.  I have a postscript program that works fine for 
smaller raster files but goofs up for big ones.   It prints
the top half of the desired image twice and omits the
bottom of the image entirely.  Here is how I am doing it:

%!
18 12 translate
576 450 scale
1152 900 1
[ 1152 0 0 -900 0 900 ]
{ <

dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
> }

What am I doing wrong?  Is it impossible to dump an image
this large because of memory usage?  It is really only
a 128k image...   Please respond by mail to br@wucs1.wustl.edu.
Thanks!
