XANTE ANNOUNCES PRICE REDUCTION ON 1200 X 1200 DPI ACCEL-A-WRITER 812 LASER
PRINTER

JUNE 5,1995, MOBILE, AL -- XANTE Corporation announces a significant price
reduction for the Accel-a-Writer 812, its Adobe PostScript, 1200 x 1200
dpi laser printer specifically designed for the desktop. From its previous
price of $3,495, the 8 page-per-minute Accel-a-Writer 812 laser printer is
being reduced $500 to a new U.S. list price of $2,995.

"Higher resolutions have become more and more important for today's desktop
publishing professional," said Martin Kennedy, XANTE' s vice president of
marketing and international sales. "We want to make the move to higher
resolution easy and affordable for our customers. With 1200 x 1200 dpi,
Adobe PostScript, and fast RISC processing, the Accel-a-Writer 812 is an
excellent solution for the quality and performance that user's need at a
price they can easily afford."

The Accel-a-Writer 812 includes 1200 x 1200 dpi and also supports a
user-selectable 600 x 600 dpi draft mode. For increased performance, it
also includes a high speed 33 MHz AMD 29030 RISC processor and a standard
16 MB RAM, upgradable to 64 MB.

Handling paper sizes up to 8.5" x 14", the Accel-a-Writer 812 ships
standard with an input capacity of 350 sheets from two trays and an output
capacity of 250 sheets. An optional third tray is available and can be
configured to hold as many as 500 sheets.

The Accel-a-Writer 812 supports XANTE's Halftone Calibration Technology,
enabling users to adjust the gamma curve of scanned images, gray scales,
and other halftones when printing. This feature enables users to calibrate
the lightness of halftone images, bringing out detail that can be lost
when printing at higher line screens or when dark photos have been
scanned. In conjunction with this technology, the Accel-a-Writer 812 also
includes an enhanced screening feature. The user is able to select the
normal (default) screen or the enhanced screens at 106,120, or 140 lines
per inch providing 40% more levels of gray. This is a definite benefit
when working in graphics applications which do not allow changes to the
line screen of images from within the program itself. Changes to the
enhanced screening or Halftone Calibration Technology settings are made
easily from the printer' s front panel or via software printer setup.

XANTE offers a one year warranty and an unconditional 30 day money back
guarantee. The XANTE products are available direct from XANTE or through
authorized resellers worldwide. For more information, please contact
