Press Release Summary = Kyocera Mita integrates ThinPrint print data compression and
bandwidth control technology into its hardware.

Press Release Body = (Berlin, February 2007) The office document solutions provider
Kyocera Mita, and the market leader in print solutions for distributed networks,
ThinPrint, has announced the beginning of a partnership. The integration of
ThinPrint technology in Kyocera Mita hardware - beginning with the network card IB23
- will allow Kyocera Mita customers to benefit from ThinPrint's print management
solution .print, directly and quickly without other hardware solutions. The network
card IB23 can be integrated into Kyocera devices currently on the market. Companies
that can fit their network printers in other locations with the card and use
ThinPrint's print engine on their server, can compress print data to up to 10
percent of its original size. This not only significantly reduces the system load,
but also speeds up the printing process, because the data can be transferred 9 times
faster. ThinPrint technology for connection orientated bandwidth control also
prevents bottlenecks in the line during print data transmission, thus securing the
network connection of employees in other locations.

The standard network card IB23, which comes equipped with the .print client, is now
available from all authorised Kyocera dealers. The exclusive application of .print
compatible Kyocera Mita hardware means that there's no need to install the .print
client on user devices such as PCs and terminals.
