NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 2000
Mimeo.com To Give Away Its Proprietary Mimeo.com
Exact Print Software(SM) And Establish a
New Standard for the Way Documents Are Produced
Mimeo.com, Inc. today announced a revolutionary new software that will forever change the way business people produce documents. The Free Mimeo.com Exact Print Software(SM) lets customers view, print, bind and deliver via FedEx important business documents directly from the print function on their desktop. Customers can download the Free software - complete with secure, exact document transmission capabilities - from the Mimeo.com web site at http://www.mimeo.com/.
> &uot;Using the Mimeo.com Exact Print Software(SM) and the Internet we are creating a new standard in the way busy wired business professionals produce documents, and we aim to be the leader in this new class of service,&uot; said Mimeo.com CEO and co-founder Jeff Stewart. &uot;For anyone who has ever had to travel to a copy shop or wait in front of a copy machine, their lives just got easier.&uot;Business people are expected to produce more than 2.3 trillion pages of documents from their printers and copiers by the year 2001, with countless hours spent waiting for the local copy shop or business center to get the job done right and on time. Thanks to Mimeo.com, every business professional with document needs - from short stapled reports to large bound presentations, in whatever quantity desired - will be able to use their time more productively, any hour of the day, from any location.
Mimeo.com makes quality, color or black-and-white digital printing technology available to any professional, from the Fortune 500 to the home-based business. Through the use of the proprietary and patent pending, easy-to-use, Mimeo.com Exact Print Software(SM), users can select Mimeo.com from the print command of any software program. Users will be connected with the Mimeo.com Web site, where they can choose from a variety of quality papers and binding options. Users then select the number of documents to be produced and provide a shipping address. Any document order placed before 10 PM ET/7 PM PT will be delivered anywhere in the U.S. via FedEx.
&uot;At Mimeo.com, all we do is convert digital documents to quality hard copies and then deliver them via FedEx. By automating the process, we ensure both are done flawlessly; in fact, we guarantee it,&uot; said Stewart. &uot;Paper documents are the meat and potatoes that keep businesses moving. Everyone has a need, be it reports, contracts, proposals, presentations, or other important business documents, even things as confidential as board meeting notes.&uot;
Stewart continued, &uot;Spending time at a copy shop or internal corporate print center is not an efficient use of a business professional's time, and they should never have to do it. Our mission is to provide busy professionals with the world's most accessible, secure and efficient way to produce important business documents and presentations.&uot;

Stewart, like most business professionals, experienced the embarrassment of having important documents produced at local copy shops that were missing pages, poorly copied or just late. Frustrated and realizing there had to be a better way, Stewart imagined the potential of using the Internet as the ideal solution to an ongoing problem.
Stewart, his two co-founders and a team of experienced professionals have been developing and testing their proprietary software for more than a year, with customers that include large corporations such as Hewlett-Packard (NASD: HWP) and Toshiba, as well as many small businesses.
&uot;While we knew our concept was strong and there was great demand for our product, we wanted to make sure we invested the necessary time and money to have a solid offering when we went to market,&uot; stated co-founder and chief technology officer David Uyttendaele. &uot;We have invested millions of dollars and thousands of hours to ensure we have the easiest service, most secure and dependable software, a state-of-the-art production facility, and the best customer service infrastructure possible. Our customers were vocal critics and partners in this important journey.&uot;
