TonerSaver Debuts in Japan: Unique Software Solution Launches in the Japanese Enterprise Market

Enterprise Solution Enables Japanese Enterprises to Take Control of Their Printing Costs and Reduce Environmental Impact.

Oxford, United Kingdom - March 2, 2006 - Software Imaging is pleased to announce the Japanese launch of its patented TonerSaver software solution through their Tokyo-based distribution partner, Media Navigation, Inc.

TonerSaver uses patented technology to reduce the amount of toner a laser printer puts down on each page, while maintaining high output quality. The less toner a printer uses, the less money a company spends on printing. TonerSaver is simply the easiest way for a company to take control of their printing costs. With TonerSaver set to a savings level of only 30%, a typical 5,000 employee enterprise can save over $375,000 on toner every year.

"With the release of the Japanese version of TonerSaver, Japanese corporations will now have the ability to take control of their printing costs," said Kevin Jampole, Vice-President, Sales of Software Imaging, "We are pleased to be working with Media Navigation as our distribution partner, as they have an established track record of successfully distributing innovative and best of breed software products in Japan."

"We are very pleased to make TonerSaver available to the Japanese market; especially given that research has shown that printing costs are significant in the corporate environment," said Toru Yokoyama, President and CEO of Media Navigation, Inc. "We have already had many exciting discussions with VARs, system integrators and potential enterprise customers who feel that TonerSaver is the ideal solution for them. In addition to the savings in printer costs, TonerSaver provides an environmental benefit as fewer toner cartridges are consumed, reducing their impact on the environment. We feel that TonerSaver will be a tremendous success in the Japanese enterprise market."

Already installed within the banking, utility, energy and education industries, TonerSaver is ideal for any cost-sensitive organization. Key benefits include:

• Reduces annual toner expenditure by up to 50%
• Maintains excellent print output quality
• Lowers the costs associated with changing, ordering and recycling cartridges
• Environmentally friendly - reduces the number of toner cartridges consumed
• Compatible with all brands of laser printers, job finishing features and printing modes
