ANNOUNCES SHIPMENT OF 1200 DPI VERSION OF 11"X17" ACCEL-A-WRITER 8100

MARCH 15,1993, MOBILE, AL -- XANTE Corporation has now started shipping the
new 1200 x 1200 dpi version of its ledger size Accel-a-Writer 8100 laser
printer. Xante, which specializes in high resolution output devices, is
the only printer vendor offering 1200 x 1200 dpi in a low end laser
printer.

"This new resolution of 1200 dpi, along with the large paper sizes and
flexibility offered by the Accel-a-Writer 8100, will open a new area of
possibilities for high end graphics and desktop publishing users," said
Xante's Vice President of Marketing, Martin Kennedy. "The best part is
that Xante has continued to provide a way for its current customers to
upgrade their products when new features are developed. To most customers,
this makes a big difference."

First introduced in September, 1992, the Accel-a-Writer 8100 is based on
Canon's 8 page per minute LBP-BX print engine. This printer will support
true 600 x 600 dpi as well as upgrades to 800 x 800, 960 x 960 and now

architecture which includes an AMD 29000 RISC processor, Advanced Memory
Management, Dual Page Processing and 12 MB RAM, upgradable to 64 MB.

Xante's Virtual Disk Technology is available as a special option and allows
users to download up to 30 fonts permanently on the printer in addition to
the 35 fonts that come standard. These fonts are both user-selectable and
user-changeable in order to provide flexibility for specific job
requirements.
