I was researching halftoning for my father a couple months ago.  I 
wasn't able to find a great answer for him.  It did appear that an older 
laser printer would do the halftoning, but we couldn't get it to work 
for other printers.

I did a lot with gimp trying to get it to work, but to no avail.  Then 
he decided to retire and it was moot.

I'm very interested if you find an answer, though.  It is something that 
should work with postscript, just don't know how.

good luck,
ep
