October 31, 1988 -- Apollo Computer Inc. introduced the ColorPrint
300, which produces 300 dpi (dots-per-inch) resolution on coated,
single-sheet paper or transparency media using a four-pass thermal wax
color printing system. The printer is able to reproduce more than 16
million display colors. For applications such as PCB design and 2-D
drafting that require solid lines, the ColorPrint 300 features an
8-color capability to ensure precise line quality.

The ColorPrint 300 is based upon the Tektronix Color Image Printer
(Model 4693D). Apollo adds a parallel interface controller board,
controller board software, and printer device driver software.

The price of the color printer is $10,000, and the product will be
delivered 45 days after receipt of order.
