Vendor Profile
Unisys is best known as a manufacturer of mainframe
computers, especially for large institutions such as gov-
ernment, banking, and insurance companies. As such, it
is IBM's only real competitor, though definitely a distant
second. In recent years, Unisys, like IBM, has concentrat-
ed on selling services rather than hardware. It has become
expert at configuring and maintaining computer systems
for widely distributed corporate and governmental
clients.
Unisys adopted this series of laser printers from
Lexmark and has relabeled them. These models are sold
through Unisys's direct-sales organization and also on
the Internet. It's unlikely that anyone other than a Unisys
customer would buy one, but they are available for any-
one. Note that Unisys has a slightly higher price and car-
ries the networked version only.

Vendor Profile
Xanté Corporation specializes in prepress equipment and
printers for the graphics industry. It sells monochrome
and color laser printers as well as specialized printers for
such media as printing plates, film, and heavy stock.
Xanté has consolidated its color laser printing line,
replacing its CL30 family of printers with its Ilumina
machine. As with its previous printers, Xanté emphasizes
color quality with the Ilumina, making tools available for
creating accurate and consistent color and for proofing
pages destined for the printing press.
Xanté was founded in the late 1980s by former employ-
ees of QMS, another printer vendor in Mobile, Alabama,
that is now a division of Konica Minolta. Xanté sells its
printers direct and through resellers.
