- I'm trying to decide between Canon BJ-200 and BJ-10ex.
- Both are portable (light weight), but BJ-200 comes with
- AC only. I wouldn't mind that necessarily that much,
- but I need to have the printer to work with 220V/50Hz
- (Europe), also.
-
- I spent half an hour calling around Canon without getting
- an answer. Their techinical help line is closed until Jan 4.
- Does anyone know, if BJ-200 will work with 220V/50Hz?
- Is a simple transformer enough, or will it be necessary to
- convert the AC frequency, too? I don't know the ink jet technology
- enough whether the AC frequency is used for anything in the printer.
