How to generate color separated PostScript?

[Jodoin Robert <Robert.Jodoin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi you all!

My documents usually contain CMYK pictures and artwork. When the day comes
that they have to be printed, we send the FrameMaker files to a printing
bureau, and they generate the color-separated PostScript for us, and
eventually print the stuff in high-quality Offset printing.

What I would like to achieve is this: I would like to be able to generate
CMYK-separated PostScript myself, so that I do not have to rely on printing
bureaus that have FrameMaker. Also, I would like to print the 4 pages C, M,
Y, and K on my HP Laserjet 5SI MX for verification purposes, e.g. on DIN A4
paper.

When I muck around with the "color Separation" button in the Printer dialog
window, I get the message: "You must specify halftone screen parameters
appropriate for the current printer". That's tough, because I have no idea
what to do next. 

I use Frame 5.5 on Win95.

Can anyone help me with this?

Robert
