The correct driver for the BJ10 is the IBM4070IJ (which was a rebadged Canon
BubbleJet).  This driver does come with Warp, but does not work very well. 
You need to get hold of the IBM4070IJ driver which shipped with OS/2 v2.1.  I
uploaded a file called BJ10.zip to hobbes (ftp-os2.nmsu.edu /os2/drivers)
which contains the 2.1 driver.  I comes with instructions to install.  Once
installed, make sure you check the settings for the driver - right click on
the driver object on your desktop, choose settings, go to the printer driver
tab and again right click on the printer icon and select settings and ensure
that 360x360 is selected.  Select system as opposed to printer fonts.  Also
check other things like paper size etc..  Click on Job Properties and make the
same changes.

All should now be OK!
