The BJ-300/BJ-330's emulate the Epson LQ (24-pin) printers and there is a MS-DOS DVI program for that.  A .ZIP file with the .EXE file exists on several places, including Simtel-20.  I have a BJ-330 (wide carriage model), but don't run MS-DOS.  If you find source code for a DVI driver for this program I would be very interested...
