.sp .5
	The 4D Ikon Board, Model 10088, rev A (figure 2) has a TERMINATOR
	resistor pack in U80 which must be removed and a SPARE TERMINATOR in
	UX1 must be installed in U80 up-side down to be correctly configured
	for the Tektronix 4692 Color Printer.
.nf
	U80 should be 100ohm terminator, reverse polarity for Tektronix 4692.
	U80 should be 220ohm terminator, forward polarity for other printers.
.sp .5
	The 4D Ikon Board, Model 10088, rev B (figure 3) has a TERMINATOR
