- I have the Star SJ-48, which is basically the same as the BJ10e. I picked the
- Star over the PN48 as it's operating cost was lower, and I found the print
- quality to be better, especially on ink jet paper.

- The BJ200 is an AC only unit. It is about 3 times faster and a pound or two
- heavier. It's very nice. I probably would have bought one if it was available
- at the time. Oh, and it also has a built in 50 page sheet feeder. The BJ-20
- appears to be a packaging of the BJ10e and sheet feeder, which is optional on
- the BJ10e. Then there is the BJ5, which looks like a cost reduced version of
- the BJ10 and sells in the low $200. Anyone know more on the BJ5 and BJ20?
