		Hi,
I am looking for the correct configuration files for my emTeX printer DVI 
drivers.  The problem is this:  I have a 360dpi Canon BJ200, which both 
understands BJ10 (IBMx24e) and Epson LQ modes.  In the emTeX collection, 
I find configuration files `bj10eh.dot' and `lqh.dot'.  When I try to 
print in BJ10 mode, I only get poor quality results (like a draft 7 pins 
output), and some tiny dislocations of the printed bitmap pattern, due to 
bidirectional printing.  When I try printing the same page in Epson LQ 
mode, I get beautifully black surfaces, but the output is somewhat fuzzy:
Each line is printed twice, and a bit of space (like a normal lineskip) 
is added between the already printed lines.  So my output is all but 
readable.  Also in LQ mode, there appear some ascii characters on the 
left edge of the sheet, like an `u' and several `/' (one on each line).  
Also there is a problem with the page dimensions:  my printer prints the 
pageno in the middle of the page, also broken onto several lines.
	Does anyone know about a solution for this problem?  And if some 
person _has_ the correct configuration file for the BJ200, could he 
please send it (e.g., by means of Email) to me?  I really would 
appreciate it!
