Changes

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'''.

I was very happy when I could acquire a brand new, very inexpensive 9-pin dot matrix printer for only 200,- DM. The '''Brother M1009''' was a discontinued model. The only difference to the official "CPC printer" which was sold by [[Schneider]], the [[NLQ401]], was a different case color, different label, and a software Eprom which enabled the NLQ 401 to print in Near Letter Quality which was something the M1009 couldn't do.
