I provided one to someone who does professional printing and graphics. They 
use Windows, but had problems installing it. It turns out that there was 
something wrong with their Windows XP somehow. The printer works fine from 
another Windows XP computer. As an interesting sideline, in my attempts to 
find a solution as to why it would not install on their bad version of 
Windows, I ran the Ubuntu 8.10 live CD on that same PC, not expecting the 
printer to be recognised. Much to my surprise, it was, and it was 
operational in just a couple of minutes. It produced an excellent test print 
page.

The owner's comment some weeks later is, it's a great printer. But I know 
no more details than that.
