There are several possible problems here:

1) I do not know whether the BJ10ex is fully compatible with the
BJ10e.

2) The BJ10e has two different switch settings.  Ghostscript expects
it to be in what the manual calls mode 1 (DIP switch 10 OFF).

3) There is a known problem with the 386-only executable: NONE of the
printer drivers work properly.  This will be fixed in release 2.4.1,
next week.
