Zebra Technologies Certifies AccessVia as ZSI Partner
VERNON HILLS, Ill., Mar. 22, 2001...Zebra Technologies Corporation, (Nasdaq: ZBRA), the worldwide leader in bar code printing, has certified AccessVia, the leader in retail sign and label printing software, as a Zebra Systems Integrator (ZSI). This certification of AccessVia as a ZSI partner assures customers of the highest level of compatibility between Zebra® printers and AccessVia's dSIGN and Web dSignShop database-driven sign and label printing solutions.
Through the ZSI partnership, AccessVia receives dedicated support, up-to-the-minute technical information, and product enhancement details from Zebra's research and development teams.
"Our close relationship with Zebra's engineering teams allows us to access information early in Zebra's development of new products. This will allow us to quickly integrate new Zebra hardware into our customers' sign and label printing systems," said Dean A. Sleeper, CEO at AccessVia.
"This partnership between Zebra and AccessVia provides a best-in-class, on-demand printing solution for retailers," said Jim Young, senior alliance manager for Zebra Technologies.

AccessVia's Web dSignShop allows delivery of any native print language via the Web, offering customers a very dependable, flexible and centrally managed solution for all their printing needs."
Created in 1999, the ZSI program targets software developers
and integrators that have developed auto ID software solutions for manufacturing,
warehousing and other markets. As a result, ZSI partners can provide their
customers with certified and proven enterprise and Web-based solutions,
seamlessly integrated with Zebra-brand printers.
