    J.C. Bradfield (jcb@dcs.ed.ac.uk) has written a fully functional
    driver which converts PPM files (&quot;ppmtomd&quot;). He started
    hacking ghostscript, but abandoned it.&lt;p&gt;

    Dye sublimation option available.&lt;p&gt;

    The &quot;md5k&quot; driver appears to support 1200x600, 600, and
    300dpi operation on a variety of papers. Unfortunately it is
    documented in Japanese.&lt;p&gt;
