Please let me know how the Quadram works out. FYI, there is a Canon

driver out there that will only work under 1.1. However I've found
two others that both work under 1.2 (everyone has a different file 
size).

I'm really curious about the Quadram's text font. The Canon font is 
practically unreadable, is the Quadram any better? (I know that it's
possible for the inkjet to deliver readable text, Canon is currently
selling a NLQ inkjet (black only) that looks just like the PJ-1080A.)
The Canon is so bad on text, I bought a NEC PR-105A ($150 from BCE) 
for my text needs (great NLQ mode!).

Other than the space two printers take up (well there is the hassle
of switching cables, and printer drivers) I can't complain. $150 for
the NEC for text (& B&W graphics) + $50 for the Canon (yea, I stole
it from a friend) for color graphics. Heck $200 is what the local
shop wants for the Okimate 20!

Anyhow, good luck with the Quadram!
