	Can someone give me a primer on color postscript ?

	Basically: we are interested in buying a QMS Colorscript 100 printer to
print 24-bit RGB images. Is this a good idea ? More specifically, how
complicated will it be to write the necessary programs, to, for example, take
a 24-bit raw raster image with color lookup table and output it on the QMS.
Who will do the color dithering ? How long will a 512x512x3 image take to
transfer ?
	Does anyone have a better way of producing good quality color image
output for less than $10K ?
	Please email responses. Thanks.
