Is it possible to get the bitmap produced by the PostScript
interpreter running on a Sparcstation with OpenWindows?

We have a SparcPrinter connected to the sparcstation and the
documentation says that the printer has no native inteligence
so I am assuming the bitmap must be created by the workstation.
Therefore I should be able to get this bitmap somehow and use
it to print really big PostScript pages on our Versatec plotter.

Thanks  --Doug
