Sources said Canon demonstrated a prototype of an 8-page-per-minute device in Japan in May, which Canon USA's Laser Beam Printer Division plans to market eventually in this country. And this week, Canon is expected to come out with its LBP-5/480, a 5-page per minute versions of the LBP-10 10-page per minute device. The new unit, priced at $6250 -- the same as the older model -- has 480 dot resolution, rather than the 240 dot resolution of the older LBP-10." Anybody know any more about these? Ted. -------
