| − | * '''DMP3000''' [[DMP3000|more info]]
| + | |
| − | * Same hardware as DMP2000, with following differences:
| + | |
| − | ** PC-style gray case (instead of the darker CPC coloured case)
| + | |
| − | ** More RAM (8Kbyte; instead of 2Kbyte)
| + | |
| − | ** More EPROM (8K+16K, or optionally 32K; instead of 16Kbyte)
| + | |
| − | ** Additional IBM character set (instead plain 7bit Epson/ASCII charset)
| + | |
| − | ** AutoLF signal supported (enabled via J4 jumper; instead of GNDing the AutoLF input)
| + | |
| − | ** User manual addressed to PC users (instead of CPC/MSX/BBC/C64 users)
| + | |
| − | ** and, maybe... additional italics support (DMP2000 doesn't explicitly mention italics support; though probably both DMP2000+3000 do support them)?

| − | === PCW Series (non-centronics) ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | PCWs were sold bundled with special printers, some with Dot Matrix printers, others with daisy wheel printers. The PCW printers aren't centronics compatible (most of the printer electronics is contained on the PCW computer mainboard, whilst the PCW printer contains only mechanics and low-level electronics).
