Berlin/Hanover, March 2004 At the CeBIT in Hall 3, Stand C31, ThinPrint will
be presenting a world novelty: Public Printing, the new product family from
ThinPrint GmbH.
With it, printout on the go is possible, without installing printer drivers
or application software on the notebook, PDA or mobile phone.

Once the solution from ThinPrint GmbH establishes itself, print stations
will be available everywhere for customers to print their documents.
Possible Public Printing operators include hotel and restaurant chain as
well as gas stations, copy shops, and libraries. It is just as feasible that
newspaper stands will offer printing services to add to their business.

?With the Public Printing solution, businesses can add a lucrative extra to
their service portfolio with minimal effort. Most won?t even need to invest
in additional hardware, because the necessary equipment is already there,?
explains Carsten Mickeleit, Managing Director at ThinPrint.

Public Printing is available in three versions - Basic, Advanced und
Premium -, depending on the environment where it is run. The Basic version
is mainly intended for businesses that want to enable documents to be
printed from a notebook or tablet PC. The document is uploaded to the
operator?s Public Printing website and can then be printed from his Public
Printing terminal. Possible areas of application could be corporate
conference or meeting rooms or smaller hotspots in newspaper stands or copy
shops.

The Advanced version has the added option of uploading email attachments as
well as files. Users with mobile telephones, Blackberrys or Smartphones
simply forward the attachment to the print service?s mail address and
receive a code number, which can be used to print the document at the
operator?s print station. The Premium version was developed for larger,
networked environments; for example, transregional hotspot operators who
want to offer Public Printing in all of their hotspots, like in larger
conference centers, train stations, and airports. The print job could then
be started at the local airport, for instance, but actually printed during
the 90-minute layover by entering the access code at the next airport.

ThinPrint GmbH
High-performance, consistent infrastructures for printing and distributing
information in the mobile internet are the focus of the product portfolio of
ThinPrint GmbH. A significant pillar of the company is the .print
technology, basis for the software print solutions developed for server
based, web based, and mobile computing. These solutions are already being
successfully applied around the world.

Previously the company has made its name mainly in the Citrix MetaFrame and
Microsoft Terminal Services arena, but has been marketing its products
increasingly and equally as successfully for distributed networks, web
applications, and mobile applications. New innovations from the successful
IT manufacturer are the product families Content Beamer, a plug-and-play
solution for mobile internet access, and Public Printing for printing at
public locations.

400 renowned distributors and resellers in 48 countries currently market the
products of the German software smithy with branch offices in USA and
Australia. Thanks to strategic partnerships, the client components of the
patent pending .print technology are integrated in a multitude of terminals,
print boxes, PDAs, and mobile telephones from leading hardware
manufacturers.
