Does anyone know of a program that can take GIF files in MCGA
format (320x200x256) or higher resolution and send them directly to the
HP PaintJet color printer. True, a screen dump is a pseudo-solution,
but as it turns out in our installation the PaintJet is attached to
a computer with only EGA, and the Screen-print driver alters the
colors.
I know of a GIF -> Epson program (PMG.COM). If that exists, then
I'm sure its likely that a GIF -> PaintJet must exist. Anybody seen one?

There's on available on the GIF support forum on Compuserve. It works
well and C source is available. The bad news is that it takes 20-30
*minutes* to generate the ouput from a 320x200x256 GIF!!
