You can define new colors and then use 'set clevs' and 'set ccols' to control the number of levels and colors.

The script library has a few different color bar options: http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/library.html

Check the output from 'q config' to make sure it says "printim command for image output ENABLED". 

If it is enabled, and if you do not put a full path in front of your output file name, then it should write the file in your current working directory (i.e., the directory where you are running grads.)
