Works perfectly for me with ps images going through gs to an Epson Stylus Color 600, but I won't pretend it didn't take some banging for me to get to that point. > Failing that, how do you convert gifs etc. into eps?

This is sort of a guess, but in my magic filter filter file I see the line 0 \377\330\377\340\?\?JFIF\0 pipe /usr/bin/djpeg -pnm which inspires me to think that a program called djpeg does the job. It strikes me as being possible that dvips provides a way to pass this sort of stuff on to the filter as well, which has capabilities (fpipe) for re-piping parts of the file through again, but I doubt it would be worthe the effort, as you will want to see what it looks like as a ps image anyway before including it.
