 Printronix Provides Outlook for First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2006

    IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 15, 2005--Printronix, Inc.
(NASDAQ:PTNX), the leading manufacturer of integrated enterprise
printing solutions for the supply chain, today announced it is
experiencing a slow-down in orders as it enters the last few weeks of
the fiscal quarter ending June 24, 2005. If these trends continue,
revenue for the first fiscal quarter of 2006 could be as much as five
percent below revenue of $32.7 million reported in the fourth quarter
of fiscal year 2005.
    The company attributes the lower revenue to weakness in Europe and
Asia Pacific. The company continues to closely manage costs while
investing in sales and marketing capabilities and in its radio
frequency identification and line matrix solutions. Despite cost
reduction programs, the company could record a net loss for the first
quarter of fiscal year 2006.

the company's markets; a worsening of the global economy due to
general conditions; a worsening of the global economy resulting from

resulting from a resurgence of SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory
Syndrome); the ability of the company to maintain its production
capability in its Singapore plant or obtain product from its Asia
Pacific suppliers should a resurgence of SARS occur; the ability of
the company to hold or increase market share with respect to line
matrix printers; the ability of the company to successfully compete
against entrenched competition in the thermal printer market; the
