The latest Electronic News had an announcement by Canon that they are
entering the end-user market.  Their product appears to be a just a
low-priced (list: $3000) laser printer.  The article quoted someone
from HP as saying that the HP LaserJet and the new Canon printer will
compete head-to-head (both printers are based on the same print engine,
manufactured by Canon).  Does anyone have any information about what
Canon's product supports (ie., downloadable fonts?  full graphics?).
How does it's functionality compare to the HP LaserJet?
