Our lab prints gray scale images within documents using some program
to generate a PostScript gray scale image along with psfig and dvips.

Also, there appeared an article several years ago in TUGboat about
using METAFONT fonts with TeX to ``typeset'' gray scale images.

Are either of these approaches, measured by image quality on a 300-600
dpi laser printer, distinctly superior to the other?  Should we run
out and obtain a version of PiCTeX?
