Item 5            Other Events.
------            ------------


                  We  entered  into a merger  agreement,  dated as of August 30,
2000, with Splash  Technology  Holdings,  Inc.  ("Splash") and one of our wholly
owned  subsidiaries.  Splash produces  software based color servers for computer
printers.

                  We intend to acquire  Splash for a cash  acquisition  price of
$10 per share of Splash  common  stock.  Assuming all of the  conditions  in the
merger agreement are satisfied or waived, we will pay this cash consideration to
Splash  stockholders  who validly  tender shares in response to our tender offer
for any and all shares of Splash  common  stock.  Assuming  that at least  fifty
percent of the shares of Splash  common stock are purchased in our tender offer,
we will pay this same $10 price per share to any remaining  Splash  stockholders
in the merger of our wholly owned  subsidiary  into Splash.  Our  acquisition of
Splash is subject to the  satisfaction of certain  conditions and is intended to
be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.


                  On August 31, 2000, we issued a press release  announcing  the
agreement to acquire  Splash,  a copy of that press  release is filed as exhibit
99.1 to this report
