  How can I put/print an image on the `canvas`?
 
 To put an image into the `canvas` you must first create it with `image
create ...` and then embed that image into the canvas.  For example:

image create photo my_image -file [file join $tk_library demos images teapot.ppm]
pack [canvas .c]
.c create image 0 0 -anchor nw -image my_image

Unfortunately Tk does not yet support the printing of images.  You can
get this functionality by grabbing the Tk dash patch
