You probably noticed that it takes a LONG time to print an image scanned
at 300 dpi on a poscript laser printer. Is there a way to make it go faster?

I noticed that on a deskwriter, it prints very fast... So I figured maybe
the posctcript language has a hrad time with all those dots...

This is even more annoying when printing a color scan on a color postcript
laser printer... Oh, it works! but man, 2 hours for a printout? Gimme a break!

Anyone with help? Shareware or commercial products, no matter what the solution
might be, I'll buy it!
