- We have a Tektronix 4693DX printer hooked up to an Apollo
- network running Domain/OS 10.3.5. We prf gpr bitmaps to
- the printserver to get hardcopy on the 4693DX.
-
- Tektronix is offering an upgrade for the 4693DX to turn it
- into a Phaser II PXi for $2K.
-
- If we upgrade the printer, will we still be able to send
- gpr bitmaps to the printserver? Will we have to convert the
- bitmaps to postscript? Will the printserver convert them to
- postscript? Can the Phaser II PXi handle bitmaps in addition to
- postscript files? Can the Phaser II PXi be connected to an
- HP 720 running HP-UX and send it HP-GL files? If so, what do I
- need on the HP side to send to the printer?
