I need help with color images

I am trying to print a colorimage using postscript and I repeatedly get
a /undefined error when I use the setcolorspace function.  This error
happens both in ghostscript and when I use Freedom of Press to print to
my color printer, so I am convinced that I am doing something wrong.

I would appreciate some help.  Here is a transcript of the ghostscript
session in which the problem shows up -- as you can see it, I cant even
reach the part where I have an image.

The initialization routine I am using is the "standard" one -- I have made
no changes to whatever was already installed on the system.


Thank you,
