I think the problem here is akin to the "how many pages" one. In order
to see if it's going to actually do color output, rather than just
think about it, you need to interpret it to the point where it marks
dots on the page, and for that you pretty much need a full-blown
interpreter.

If you can run Ghostscript on your machine and have a color monitor,
use that. Quite impressive; even more so when you consider the price.
