Gentlemen:
We have been furnished with a copy of the response to Item 4 of Form 8-K for
the event that occurred on May 9, 1997, to be filed by our former client,
Kentek Information Systems, Inc. We agree with the statements made in response
to that Item insofar as they relate to our Firm with the exception to the third
sentence of the first paragraph of Item 4 indicating we had resigned as the
Company's principal accountant. Our letter to the Company confirmed that the
client-auditor relationship had ceased, after being advised that we were
dismissed by the Company.
Very truly yours,
/s/ BDO SEIDMAN, LLP
