NLQ401

58 bytes added, 10:44, 21 August 2010
The [[NLQ401]] is a Near Letter Quality printer from [[Schneider]], for use with German Schneider CPC computers. The '''SFT401''' tractor feed add-on was sold separately. Both NLQ401 and SFT401 were advertised as official Schneider expansions on the back of the german CPC6128 users manual.
 
The plaque, saying '''Centronics Data Computer Corp., Model No. 3101''', at the bottom of the NLQ401 printer reveals that the hardware wasn't produced by Schneider themselves. Nearly identical hardware was also distributed by other companies, like the '''Brother M1009'''.
 
Reportedly, the Schneider NLQ 401 is same as '''Centronics GLP 500''' and '''Brother M1009''' (but, see below for extra info concerning missing near-letter quality support on Brother M1009).
 
The NLQ 401 does also resemble the Commodore MPS-803 (at least externally).
