                            WAIVER OF COMPLIANCE WITH
                          OPERATING CASH FLOW COVENANT

          WAVIER OF COMPLIANCE (this "Waiver"), dated as of May 18, 2002,
between Printcafe Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Printcafe") and Iris

          WHEREAS Printcafe was not in compliance with the Operating Cash Flow
covenant set forth in Section 6.1(d) of the Credit Agreement for the fiscal
quarter ended March 31, 2002;

          WHEREAS such non-compliance constitutes an Event of Default under
Section 7 of the Credit Agreement; and

          WHEREAS Iris Graphics is entitled to remedies as provided in the
Credit Agreement as a result of such Event of Default, including but not limited
to a 3% increase in the Applicable Margin.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Printcafe and Iris Graphics agree as follows:

interest through and including the date of repayment and (b) the applicable
prepayment penalty set forth in Section 2 of that certain Prepayment Agreement
dated as of March 25, 2002 between Iris Graphics and Printcafe, (ii) Printcafe
successfully completes the contemplated Initial Public Offering and (iii) all
other payments owed by Printcafe to Iris Graphics, Inc. have been made in a
timely fashion, Iris Graphics shall waive the Event of Default due to
Printcafe's failure to meet the Operating Cash Flow covenant set forth in
Section 6.1(d) of the Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarter ended March 31,
2002 and the related increase in the Applicable Margin by 3.00%. If the above
conditions are not met on or before June 20, 2002, the Event of Default referred
to herein shall not have been waived and shall be deemed to have occurred and be
continuing since May 15, 2002, and Iris Graphics shall be entitled to all rights
and remedies under the Credit Agreement as a result of such Event of Default.
Such Waiver shall not apply to any Default or Event of Default other than as
specified above and for any time period other than as specified above, whether
such Default or Event of Default is known or unknown as of the date of this
Wavier, and shall not serve as precedent for any future dealings between
Printcafe and Iris Graphics. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge that Iris
Graphics does not hereby waive any of its rights or remedies under the Credit
