* Three samples of each printer were tested to minimize variability in the test results. All printers tested were standard production units and were tested using the factory default mode. Customer results will vary based on variables that include percentage of time printers are in print, sleep or power off mode and the communication interface used. Epson advises customers to test their POS systems in their environment to determine potential savings with the use of Epson POS printers.
