  Are there any plans to make ghostscript able to produce raw bitmaps
which might then be printed?  In particular, I have a Mitsubishi G650
color printer which will happily print 3-bit color bitmaps, but
nothing else.  It would be a dream come true to use ghostscript to
make this $5,000 printer due the job of the $20,000 color
PostScript(tm) printers.  Even code to produce binary bitmaps would be
useful.
