[fa.laser-lovers] postscript screen dump

I'm finishing up a program which does bitmap screen dumps on the apple
laserwriter using postscript, and I was wondering how fast other
people have been able to do it. Our screen is approximately 1100 x 750
pixels. Unfortunately, it takes from two to four minutes to get the
screen dump printed over a 9600 baud line.  Is anyone getting better
performance than this?  I think I might be able to improve it by a
factor of two, but I wondered if anyone had already done it.
