The Corona printer uses the same Canon engine everyone else is using.
Instead of putting memory in the printer, they use ram in the IBM-PC for
bit map storage.  I have seen it work with PCTeX and also with an
Optical Page scanner that Microtek in Gardena CA makes.  We are probably
going to get one to use with PCTeX.  Incidentally, PCTeX is working
on a licensing agreement to supply fonts from the Metafoundry in Ohio with
his system.
Ted.
