I used the BJ-10e for a few days recently before my users took it on the
road with them to use with my Windows app.  We were very impressed with the
quality, especially graphics (360 dpi), but if you are in a hurry or have
lots of big reports to get out, you may be disappointed.  It takes about 45
seconds to print a page of text.  You can download fonts to its 37K buffer,
but that adds another couple minutes to a print job.  Other than the speed,
it's great.

Note that you will need the Windows Supplemental Drivers Disk (from
Microsoft for $20 or I understand from CompuServe) to set it up as a Canon
printer.  Otherwise it emulates the IBM Proprinter 24 series.
