"Things Remembered rolled out close to 1,000 Epson TM-H6000II printers with electronic-journal capabilities and MICR readers. The Epson printer solution stores a copy of every transaction in non-volatile memory – even if the store loses power, the record of all the transactions will remain in the system."

"[We chose Epson because] we needed to deploy a device capable of reading the MICR line checks and we needed new printers anyway. That’s why we looked at printers that could do both. We wanted to reduce our check-fraud exposure, as well as benefit from not having to process the paper checks manually."

"[PGA National] The Palm Beach Gardens, Florida resort was an early adopter of Epson printers using the Connect-It module, which allows printers to be connected right to a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network. That allows the resort to connect restaurants to kitchens via a dedicated Ethernet network that also supports the resort’s MICROS POS system, and paves the way for future applications such as remote printer configuration and management via standard web browsers."

"Universal Fast Food Organization, operator of a Burger King restaurant nestled between the New York Stock Exchange and brokerage firm offices in the heart of New York City’s financial district, turned to printers to offer a convenient service to nearby time-pressed office workers. The company installed an Epson receipt printer at the front counter dedicated exclusively to Internet orders. Like many operators, Young [of Universal Fast Food Organization] feels the must-haves for a POS or kitchen printer include excellent, legible print, quick response time and reliability."

Grove Snacks selected Epson’s IM-310 10-inch touch terminals because of the devices’ open-architecture platform and ability to integrate with the retailer’s AIM Systems software."
