Careful about this thing.  It is essentially a plotter-type device,
which plots with a laser beam on film.  If your application tries
to erase then it won't produce the expected output.  I don't know
if it handles bitmaps.  I do know that it will NOT work with my
application (ChemDraw) until they support the complete QuickDraw
verb set, including Erase.
