A NEMA 17 sized stepper motor.
Wikipedia Stepper motor

A NEMA 17 stepper motor is a stepper motor with a 1.7 x 1.7 inch (43.2 x 43.2 mm) faceplate. The NEMA 17 is larger and generally heavier than for example a NEMA 14, but this also means it has more room to put a higher torque. However, its size is not an indication of its power.

(I don't want to mess anything up so I'm adding this here. If I'm wrong please delete this. Are the dimensions 4.32mm or 4.23mm?)

Suppliers

Below is a non-exhaustive list of possible motors and suppliers.

You are welcome to add information on a stepper motor/vendor you encounter, but please add only steppers which were tested to actually work on some printer.

Part number decoding

You can decode the part number written on Shinano Kenshi motors with the SKC Stepping Motor Part Number decoder at Shinano Kenshi: "Stepping Motor Operation & Theory".

You can decode Lin Engineering part numbers written on it with the "Lin part number system" decoder on p.1 and p.2 of the Lin Engineering Catalog. Page 9 of the Lin Engineering catalog explains the part numbering system.
