Sorry but the quick answer is NO!  I spoke to Apple people back when
System 6.0.1 was under construction and they told me that they would
indeed not be including color support in their LaserWriter driver.  The
only way to get it would be for some brilliant hacker to rewrite the
postscript driver or LaserWriter driver.  I called them after exhausting
all my ideas on how to get color out of the existing driver.
