I believe that DEC's LN01s is OEMed by QMS.
You should probably get a copy of the QMS programmer manual. It explains
the font loading sequence. Also there maybe be more then one depending
on the version of the micro code. QMS's newer micro code supports the old
sequence and also a new one that is more compact and vertically aligns 
characters by their base line not their top.

The bitmap stuff should be the same also.

[[Editor's note:  Unless something has changed in the past few months,
the QMS 1200 and the LN01 do not have the same interface.  Both use
the same Xerox-produced print engine (also used in the Xerox 2700) but
I believe that each company has produced its own interface to that
engine and therefore the interfaces can be expected to differ.
