I found 'px2ps' at:

   gauguin.Princeton.edu    (128.112.224.1)

   login as "ftp" or "anonymous"
   use anything as a password
   set binary mode

   get pub/pix/px2ps

 Currently handled input formats:
   TIFF,SGI,Sun,Targa,Alias,Sim,HDF,GWH (at Princeton: GIF,Xwd, and .Z files)
   Note: Uses Level II 'colorimage' operator for RGB images.
         Even grayscale ('image' operator) EPS files are huge!
         Not all color PostScript printers handle images correctly.
