FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NUR Macroprinters begins shipping NUR Tempo flatbed wide-format inkjet presses

Lod, Israel; September 4, 2003 - NUR Macroprinters (Nasdaq-SCM: NURM), a leading supplier of wide-format inkjet production printing systems for the out-of-home advertising market, today announced that worldwide commercial shipments of its new and hotly anticipated NUR Tempo™ flatbed inkjet press have begun.

The NUR Tempo is a flatbed, wide-format inkjet printer that can produce high quality output on a wide variety of both rigid and flexible materials. During the past year, NUR Macroprinters has previewed the machine in prototype and pre-production format in the U.S. and Europe at trade events that address the wide-format digital printing and screen-printing markets.

The NUR Tempo was designed as a digital alternative to screen printing presses to handle diverse applications, especially short to medium, on-demand print runs that are not cost effective using traditional screen printing methods. In operation, it is designed to eliminate the extra steps and costs of finishing - laminating and cutting/trimming processes - common to other traditional methods of printing graphics on rigid surfaces.

Comments David Amir, president and CEO of NUR Macroprinters Ltd. “Today marks the beginning of an exciting new phase for NUR - the end of a comprehensive testing process for NUR Tempo during which the machine proved itself to be both reliable and productive and the start of shipments to customers worldwide.”

Amir continues, “This initial success and the apparent strong interest in the market as evidenced by the backlog of orders we have already accumulated, bode well for the new product. Over the next year, we foresee that the NUR Tempo will assume an increasingly important position in our product portfolio.”

“The NUR Tempo is not the first flatbed inkjet press to reach the market, but we believe it's the first with the right combination of features to realistically address the needs of screen printers,” adds Itay Shalit, Director of Marketing at NUR Macroprinters. “ We believe that because it provides a combination of features that are unique among today's new generation of flatbed presses - photo-realistic quality four- and eight-color printing, the ability to print on both rigid and roll-fed materials, and a large format that can accommodate a wide variety of applications - it delivers an unparalleled level of versatility, quality and productivity that we believe will result in a fast return-on- investment for our customers. These advantages of the NUR Tempo have created great anticipation in the marketplace.”

During the past several months NUR Macroprinters has built up a backlog of deposit-secured orders for the new NUR Tempo, which it has now begun to deliver. The company has also expanded its manufacturing capacity for the machines to ensure it can fulfill new orders.

The NUR Tempo uses UV-curable inks that give it the flexibility to print on almost any type of substrate. These include corrugated board, foam-core paperboard, acrylic sheets, PVC, polycarbonate, fluted polypropylene, glass, wood and standard rolled media. It also features a large format table (10 ˝ ft. x 6 ˝ ft. / 3.2m x 2m) to accommodate a wide variety of applications and job formats. It can handle both rigid and rolled substrates with fast and easy changeover between the two for ultimate flexibility and its high quality 4- and 8-color printing modes deliver the best combination of high speed and photo-realistic image quality with easy, automated changeover between modes. The machine's fully encapsulated construction ensures a comfortable working environment.
