WP 5.1 has a conversion program that will convert ps files to wpg files.
However, if the ps file has bitmapped graphics in it rather than ps code to
generate the graphics, I think youre out of luck doing it that way.  

Pizazz Plus can also convert graphics to wp 5.1 format.

However, you will generally be better off as regards quality of the output,
if you print it separately.
