AMT OFFERS PCL-5 16PPM CONTINUOUS-FORMS LASER PRINTER

CAMARILLO, CA--Advanced Matrix Technology, Inc. (AMT) has begun shipping
the TracJet III, the newest version of their 16 page-per-minute
continuous-forms laser printer. The TracJet III contains an entirely new
data controller offering full HP LaserJet III (PCL-5) compatibility,
HP-GL/2 plotting, and scalable fonts. A PostScript emulation with
automatic language switching is also available as an option.

"The TracJet III combines advanced technology from five different
companies," said Greg Larson, AMT's laser products manager. "We've
integrated a Pentax 16 ppm laser engine with an Intel i960 RISC processor
and i961 controller-on-a-chip, PeerLess PCL-5 emulation, Agfa Intellifont
scaling technology, and Output Technology engine controller." By
assembling components from these industry leaders, AMT boasts that the
TracJet III delivers exceptionally high performance and 100%
compatibility.

TracJet III's 16 page-per-minute print engine is ideally suited as a laser
replacement for a wide range of line printer applications. The TracJet III
is equally adept at handling complex continuous-forms jobs, like printing
bar codes, labels, checks, forms, continuous "strip" charts, stock tags,
membership cards and more. Over the past two years, TracJet's print engine
has gained wide acceptance in a variety of industries and has proven to be
both durable and reliable.

The TracJet III's superior performance is achieved with an advanced i960
32-bit 16 Mhz RISC processor and i961 controller-on-a-chip. The i961
performs many printer-specific functions, relieving the i960 from the
burden of performing lower-level, time-consuming operations. This
architecture is extremely efficient and maintains consistent throughput in
all applications.

TracJet III's HP PCL-5 emulation was developed by the PeerLess Group, a
leading software developer and supplier of emulations. The PCL-5 emulation
has been fully tested in other products over the past year, so full HP
LaserJet III compatibility is assured. The emulation includes HP-GL/2
vector plotting, compressed raster graphics printing, macro functions, and
advanced font effects, such as patterned and cross-hatched fills,
rotations and non-linear scaling.

The PCL-5 emulation also features the same Agfa Intellifont scaling
technology and typefaces that are used in the HP LaserJet III models. With
Intellifont, TracJet III can scale fonts "on-the-fly" from 1 to 999 points
in quarter-point increments.

"The OTC engine controller offers a variety of useful features that are not
available on competing products," said David Beardsley, AMT's
Vice-President of Sales. "There's programmable fuser heating so that you
can print on a wide range of media, variable forms length control so that
you can use pages up to 33 inches long, and a patented ALF (any length
forms) function so that data is positioned precisely from page-to-page."

The TracJet III, which retails for $6995, comes standard with a
one-megabyte memory (expandable to nine megabytes), dual parallel and
serial interfaces, and a one-year manufacturer's warranty. The PostScript
option retails for $995. AMT is also offering a custom printer stand with
a motorized paper stacker for $695. The TracJet III will be sold by
authorized AMT dealers, VARs, and system integrators. For more
