EXHIBIT 99.2

                                  PRESS RELEASE

        TRIAL COURT STAYS FINDING OF INFRINGEMENT AND MARKMAN RULINGS AND
                      VACATES TRIAL DATE IN EOS LITIGATION

VALENCIA, Calif.--Sept. 18, 2003--3D Systems Corp. (Nasdaq: TDSC) announced that
the Federal District Court in Orange County, California, which is hearing the
EOS GmbH Electro Optical Systems (EOS) vs. DTM Corporation (DTM) patent
infringement lawsuit, has determined on its own initiative to stay both the
August 20, 2003 Markman rulings and the finding of patent infringement by DTM,
pending a reconsideration of certain aspects of those earlier decisions. The
Court also vacated the trial date (previously scheduled for October 7, 2003) in
order to give the parties the opportunity to submit additional briefs on issue
identified by the Court. These briefs are due September 26, 2003. No date has
yet been set for further hearings, nor has a trial date been reset.

"As we have previously stated, we are confident that we will ultimately prevail
on both the law and the facts in all of our disputes with EOS, and we are
grateful that the Court has given us the opportunity to address these issues in
an expedited fashion," said Chuck Hull, 3D Systems co-founder and interim chief
executive officer. "It is unfortunate that EOS previously issued publicity which
may have created misimpressions in the minds of both our customers and the
investment community as to the status and likely outcome of this litigation."

Our view of the ultimate outcome of the California EOS litigation is a forward
looking statement and is subject to uncertainties and other factors that may
cause the actual results of the litigation to be materially and adversely
different than the beliefs we express in this release. The ultimate outcome of
the litigation will be determined by the court following arguments by both
