4 out of 5 stars Still more expensive than the current printers 4 years later.......2006-07-26

I watched this printer for years and I was waiting for the price to drop. I finally caved in a bought a refurb 1 year ago.
Pro: Lightweight 2Lbs(with battery), USB, battery powered, comes with AC adapter, size is small to fit in a back pack. Works with my Tablet PC software.
Con: High quality mode is slow compared to today's printers as well as resolution. Old type of feeding one page at a time. Could not get the IR to work. I suspect that my computer IR is not compatible. I just carry a very small USB cable.

I have looked at the current portable printers and they are all 5-6LBS. Yes they probably have great quality and photos but I don't need that. My purpose for this printer is to do quick print outs of 2 to 3 page reports, drafts and boarding passes. It fits so well in a computer bag with my slate and some paper.
The company that can produce a better quality printer with this size and weight will make money. That is probably why this printer has not dropped much in price even used. It's the year 2006 and it sells higher than the current canon and hp used.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2003-03-13

I needed a printer to go with my Notebook and this one filled the bill. It isn't cheap but you seem to get what you pay for. When at home, adding the Auto Sheet Feeder makes it as convenient as a stationary printer but with a smaller footprint. Highly recommend this one for the Notebook users.

5 out of 5 stars GREAT PRINTER.......2003-02-24

I JUST BOUGHT THIS PRINTER FOR MY LAPTOP.
IT WAS VERY EASY TO INSTALL AND EASY TO WORK WITH. THE PRINTING IS GREAT, AND QUICK FOR A BUBBLE JET. THE COLOR IS VERY GOOD.

5 out of 5 stars Simply the best printer for your notebook.......2002-11-11

You can't buy a better printer for your notebook!

5 out of 5 stars Great, and long-lasting.......2002-05-28

I've had the predecessor (BJC-50) for about 4 years. It has been used heavily at home and one the road, and it has taken hard beatings. It has finally given out, and I'm going to buy another.

It's a truly amazing product. I can't think of another computer peripheral that still costs the same as it did 4 years ago -- and is still worth the high price. Why can't anyone else match it at a lower price? Darned if I know!
