	There seems to be some confusion as to various model numbers,
features and price.  Here is a list of the Tektronix printers I'm aware of.

Name			Price	Type
----			-----	----
Tektronix_4692		?	ink-jet, paper rotates on a cylinder
Tektronix_4696		$1500	ink-jet, looks exactly like a Xerox_4020
				121x120 and psuedo 242x240 dpi
Tektronix_4693D		$8000+	thermal transfer, 300x300 dpi
Tektronix_4693DX	$8000+	thermal transfer, 300x300 dpi
