Printing From Hotel Guestroom Enhances Complimentary
High-Speed Internet Access
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., and KITCHENER, Ontario, August 25, 2003  -- Hilton Garden Inn® has selected PrinterOn as the preferred hotel guest printing service for all Hilton Garden Inn hotels throughout North America. 

The guest printing service has already been deployed in more than 65 of the 171 open Hilton Garden Inn locations nationwide, making the Hilton Garden Inn brand the first hotel chain to provide the complimentary remote printing service in its hotels.  The remote printing service enhances the complimentary* high-speed Internet service currently available in guestrooms. All Hilton Garden Inn properties will offer the remote printing service by March 2004. 

The PrinterOn remote printing service makes it possible for Hilton Garden Inn guests to print from a notebook computer or personal data assistant (PDA) either wired or wireless, to a printer in the hotel's business center without special cables, drivers or technical support. To use the hotel guest printing service, guests simply connect to the Internet and use their Web browser to visit the hotel's branded printing Web site. 

"We continue to differentiate the Hilton Garden Inn brand by providing the business amenities our guests require to remain productive out of the office," said Adrian Kurre, senior vice president - brand management, Hilton Garden Inn.  "Our brand wide complimentary high-speed Internet access was the first step in providing business travelers with what they need most when traveling, and now with our initiative to add complimentary guestroom printing, we have achieved another industry first."

According to Steve Spicer, CEO and president of PrinterOn, "We are excited to have a market leading hotel chain rolling out our guest printing services across North America.  With more business travelers relying on hotel Internet services for out of office productivity, online printing completes the corporate office experience business travelers are demanding."
