The LN01S most definitely does not support full bit-map downloads. The
sales literature is completely bogus. The QMS 1200 does support bit-map
downloads. DEC removed this functionality when they rewrote the firmware.
I asked if the functionality would be present in the future and they
seemed to think it would (although not immediately).

PS: BTW, my kludge to provide full bit-map downloads seems to be at least
as fast as what QMS provides. My method could probably be implemented on
any laser printer that supports downloading of fonts.
