Tektronix Printers

I know this seems like from some far off historic landscape, but I
thought it might be worth a try.

We still use an Ortho 50H with a 2150 data system. This usually prints
on a Tektronix dry silver antique printer, model # 4634. Our printer has
died and the repair is almost not supported by tektronix, next year they
won't support it at all. The cost will be over $1000.00 to repair as it
stands now. I was wondering if anyone out there has ever replaced this
kind of printer directly with another kind of printer, I can send files
over a cable to my 386 compaq and print that way but it is very
cumbersome and slow and I liked to be able to print data, especially
files that I did not necessarily want to save.

Any ideas would be most welcome.
