1) Management Opinion 
 
   In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements 
   reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments)
   necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations 
   as of and for the periods presented. 

2) Cash and Cash Equivalents

   The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with
   maturities of three months or less at the time of purhase to be cash 
   equivalents. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash balances held in 
   foreign currencies was not material for the periods presented.

3) Inventories 

   Inventories are priced at the lower of cost (FIFO) or market and include
   the cost of material, labor and manufacturing overhead.  

4) Earnings per Share 

   The number of shares used in computing earnings per share equals the total
   of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods 
   presented plus common stock equivalents relating to options. Common stock
   equivalents relating to options represent additional shares which may be 
   issued in connection with their exercise, reduced by the number of shares 
   which could be repurchased with the proceeds at the average market price
   per share computed on a quarterly basis during the year. The following 
   table shows the calculation for primary and fully diluted shares outstanding:

                  Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of  
                            Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                        -------------------------------------------

Reference is made to the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995 for a detailed discussion and analysis of the 
Company's financial condition and results of operations for the periods 
covered by that report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues and Backlog

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 of $42.2 million, were up  2.5%
over last quarter sales of $41.2 million, and up 26.1% over the year-ago 
quarter sales of $33.5 million.  Revenue growth over last quarter came 
primarily from increased sales of P9212  line matrix printers to the Company's 
largest OEM customer. In addition, higher sales to distribution customers, led
by sales of the new L1024 continuous form laser printer released in the 
quarter, and higher than expected sales of mature line matrix printers, also 
contributed to the improved revenue. International sales for the quarter were
$16.7 million, compared with $16.6 million last quarter and $13.1 million for
the year-ago quarter. The increase in international sales over the year-ago 
quarter reflects growth in shipments to the Company's major OEM customers 
located outside the United States. Order backlog as of June 30, 1995 and at 
the end of the prior quarter was $17.6 million compared with $12.9 million at
the end of the year-ago quarter.

Over the next two to three quarters, the Company will begin shipping a new 
family of fourth generation line matrix printers. These products will offer 
speeds ranging from 475 to 1200 lines per minute and will replace prior
generation line matrix models of similar speeds which are currently sold to 
customers. Due to the inherent risk and difficulty in customers forecasting
their exact inventory requirements during this transition period, sales of
the Company's line matrix products could vary from current levels. However,
management believes that overall, the Company's revenues will not be adversely
affected during this transition.

Gross Profit

First quarter gross profit grew to $10.9 million compared with $10.6 million 
last quarter and $8.7 million for the year-ago quarter. As a percentage of 
sales, gross profit remained flat with the year-ago quarter at 25.9% and 
increased slightly from 25.8% in the prior quarter.  Manufacturing
efficiencies resulting from higher production volumes and declining material 
costs on certain line matrix products have contributed to improvements in 
gross margin. However, preproduction costs associated with the new P4200 line
matrix family, higher consumables costs and a gradual decline in sales of
higher margin mature line matrix products substantially offset any 
improvements in the gross profit percentage.

Operating and Other Expenses and Taxes

Engineering spending for the current and prior quarter was $3.6 million  
compared with $2.7 million for the year-ago quarter. Engineering expense as 
a percentage of sales was 8.5% compared with 8.7% last quarter and 8.1% in 
the year-ago quarter. The increased percentage spending over the prior year 
quarter was due primarily to development costs of the P4200 family of line 
matrix printers, expected to begin shipping in increasing volumes to 
customers over the next few quarters.

                         ---------------------------------
Operating and Other Expenses and Taxes-continued

Selling, general, and administrative expenses remained flat with the prior 
quarter at $4.5 million and increased 8.6% over the year-ago quarter spending
of $4.2 million.  The increased spending over the year-ago quarter reflects 
higher sales and marketing  and support costs to manage the 26% increase in 
revenue. Although spending levels have increased over the prior year quarter 
selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales,  
decreased to 10.8% compared with 12.5% in the year-ago quarter.

Other income, net for the quarter totalled $0.04 million compared to net 
expense of $0.1 million last quarter and $0.2 million for the prior year 
quarter. Increased interest income resulting from higher average cash 
balances, lower interest expense due to decreasing debt balances, and 
a decline in foreign currency remeasurement loss all contributed to a net 
nonoperating income position for the quarter.

The required tax provision has been minimal as the Company is currently 
utilizing a Federal net operating loss carryforward and has been providing 
only for various state and foreign taxes. The Company expects certain state 
income tax requirements to increase gradually over the next few quarters. 
                                       
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES   

The Company continues to strengthen its financial position ending the quarter
with cash, net of short-term debt, of $11.0 million, up $2.9 million over 
last quarter and up $10.1 million over the prior year quarter. The increased 
cash balance continued to be driven by improved profitability, greater 
inventory turns, and holding accounts receivable balances at prior quarter 
levels despite the higher sales volume. The Company's current ratio increased
to 2.9 compared with 2.7 last quarter and 2.5 in the year-ago quarter.

Investment in capital equipment was $2.0 million compared with $1.5 million 
last quarter and $1.0 million for the prior year quarter. Capital 
expenditures for the quarter consisted primarily of worldwide upgrades of 
computer hardware and investment in manufacturing equipment in the Company's 
Singapore facility to support additional production requirements.  The Company
expects similar levels of capital expenditures over the next few quarters. 
 
In December 1994, Printronix completed a stock split effected in the form of 
a fifty percent (50%) stock dividend. Retroactive effect has been given to 
the stock split in all share and per share data presented.

The Company believes that its internally-generated funds, together with 
available financing, will be adequate in providing its working capital 
requirements, capital expenditures, and engineering development needs through
the current fiscal year.
