Software Imaging Enables the World's Fastest* Full Color Inkjet Printer

Riso Chooses Software Imaging's Advanced Printer Driver Technology to Drive its 120 Page-per-minute Raster-based Print Devices

Oxford, United Kingdom - July 18, 2006 - Software Imaging is pleased to announce that Riso Kagaku Corporation has chosen Software Imaging's raster driver development tool, Sorcerer, to drive the HC5500, their new 120 page-per-minute product; the world's fastest full color printer*.

The use of Sorcerer's advanced technologies enables data to be delivered at speeds that do not inhibit the true technical capabilities of today's devices. Drivers built using the Sorcerer Single Source Development Environment (SSDE) deliver the performance, high quality, and flexibility required to support high page-per-minute raster-based inkjet devices.

"We selected Software Imaging as our technology partner because we needed a software solution that could develop advanced printer drivers for multiple operating systems from a single source," says Noboru Inamine, General Manager of S&A Development Centre at Riso Kagaku Corporation. "Sorcerer's single source approach to driver development results in significant time-to-market advantages and high quality, consistent color results across platforms."

"We are pleased to have been able to provide Riso with the technological advantages that have enabled them to swiftly bring the HC5500 to market," says Kevin Jampole, Director of Sales & Marketing for Software Imaging. "Riso's decision to use our Sorcerer technologies to drive the HC5500 demonstrates the ability of our solutions to easily support the next generation of low-cost, high-speed print devices."
