I would suggest a simple way - run an EPS file.
First, convert the image to EPS, ex. myimage.eps, save it in myfolder and then modify your code to define placeEPS operator and display myimage.eps by using it.

%!PS-Adobe-3.0

% Place EPS image definition
% Syntax:     placeEPS
% =============================================================
/placeEPS 
{
    userdict begin

    /__be_state     save            def
    /__ds_count     countdictstack  def
    /__os_count     count 5 sub     def
    /showpage       {}              def

    initgraphics
    translate 
    dup scale 
    run

    count           __os_count sub  { pop } repeat
    countdictstack  __ds_count sub  { end } repeat
                    __be_state              restore
    end
} bind def
% =============================================================

% Your old code starts here
/Times-Roman findfont
12 scalefont setfont
50 700 moveto
(text) show

% Now mark myimage.eps scaled to 100% at position 100, 100
(myfolder/myimage.eps) 1 100 100 placeEPS

showpage

Now convert to PDF by Acrobat Distiller or GhostScript.
You can also use this approach to place a full-page canvas to a document.
