I don't know about the BJ-5, but I bought a BJ-10e last year and it's one of the
best investments I've made... with the exception of my Mega STe of course! :-)

There is sometimes a very sligh problem with line overlap, just like conventional
24-pin printers, but in 48-pin mode the quality if absolutely superb... The ink
soaks into the paper JUST slightly so it has an aliasing effect you don't get on
lasers so lines look smoother.

I use it with the BJ-100 (I think) driver in Calamus 1.09 and though I haven't
seen the output of a DeskJet I'd have to be REALLY impressed to beat the BJ.

One BJ-10e devoted writer!

David.
