"We had sold a lot of Epson's TM-T88 series of printers, so when the new Mobilink wireless printer, which was based on the TM-T88 series came out, it was a no-brainer to us which model to use."

President of HDSNE

"[At Comedy Works], waitresses can process credit card payments [with Epson Mobilink] within a matter of a few seconds, without leaving the customer's side. Not only have customer lines been virtually eliminated, bill payment mix-ups are now nonexistent."

"When it's time to close out sales [at Comedy Works], wait staff don the [Mobilink] printers and move table to table, taking cash and credit cards and issuing receipts on the spot. The solution enabled Comedy Works to delay last call by five to ten minutes per show - a significant help in an operation where wait staff average $2,000 each in sales on a weekend night."

"Liquor sales and check cashing services are a large part of our business," said Gibson. "We plan to use the Epson [TM-H6000II with TransScan and ProofPlus] printer to image checks and ID cards, lowering our overall liability, while speeding up transaction time for our customers. Lowering our costs allows us to be more competitive in our marketplace."

"For the past year, the one-unit home center operator (All American Home Center) has relied on Epson's TM-J7100 inkjet printers to help hold its own against such rivals as neighboring Home Depot with which it shares a parking lot. All American Home Center also is availing itself of the ability to print return forms directly on customer receipts rather than using separate pre-printed slips to process returned merchandise. This alone has resulted in an annual savings of $10,000."

"The ROI of the solution [Epson IR terminal / ECRS Catapult] was projected at 24 months, mainly due to the cost of the scanning equipment. But it is now at 18 months because of our decision to use Epson POS terminals."

"Beyond basic receipts, many printers offer new functionality including digital check, ID and credit card imaging capabilities. Epson's TM-H6000II with TransScan technology enables retailers to scan and capture checks in a single step, cutting down transaction time. Publix Super Markets recently selected Epson's TM-H6000II multifunction printer as part of the company's storewide POS system rollout."

"Magruder's, a nine-store locally-owned supermarket chain in Washington D.C., rolled out Epson's TM-H6000II multifunction printer with TransScan digital check imaging and ProofPlus ID scanning as part of the company's storewide POS system rollout. With the rollout complete, the chain plans to implement check and ID scanning this summer, after concluding an NCR FastLane upgrade project."

"(With Epson’s TM-H6000II with TransScan digital check imaging) we save on transaction fees compared to paper checks, and we get funds deposited into our account the next business day, compared to three or four days later. Perhaps most notable was the dramatic reduction in returned checks. Over the first month of using the system, only four out of about 5,000 checks were returned. We used to have more like four a day."

"It's [Epson's TM-H6000II with TransScan] not just a receipt printer. It can endorse the back of the check, print on the front, and takes a graphic image of the check so you hand it back to the customer and send the image to the bank. It cuts the time of doing a check transaction from 90 to 100 seconds, down to as little as 10 seconds."

The program will equip resellers, distributors, and OEMs to sell, install, support and service a complete check imaging solution at the point of presentment."

"The Epson (TM-T70) receipt printer was a perfect fit for our cart locations." Epson’s TM-T70 was designed to fit under the counter, with all-front access to controls, paper loading and receipt dispensing. The space-saving design was ideal for Doc Popcorn, which operates 34 stores, including popcorn carts where space is at a premium.
Rob Woodfield

Director of Operations

Doc Popcorn
"Our decision to go with the Epson (TM-H6000) printer has turned out very well. The printer has proven to be highly reliable, speeding up POS transactions and improving customer service."
Karen Thomas

VP of Information Systems

Southern States Cooperative
"The Epson ReStick solution is ideally suited to our needs and we are very pleased with the increased order accuracy. It has streamlined our preparation process and allowed us to customize, and ultimately greatly enhance, the way we deliver orders to our customers."
Richard Delvalle

Director of Restaurant Systems

Friendly's Express
“We evaluated several POS printers and found Epson to be the best-of-breed for both the technology features and hardware compatibility. The Epson TM-H6000 with check and ID imaging was the hands-down best fit for our needs.”
Sarat Yellepeddi

VP of IT Development

Southeastern Data Cooperative
"We knew the Epson printers would be reliable, but we also wanted a printer that wouldn’t take up any counter space. Knowing we have the ability to place the TM-T70 printers under the counter is a big advantage, and we will gain extra counter space when we redesign."
Salvatore Pugliese

VP of IT and Systems

Hart Stores
"With our TM-T88V rollout, Epson offered a Recycle/Rebate program to properly dispose of our old printers, an Energy Star rating to save on electricity usage, and a savings of approximately 40% on our paper costs (and waste) by reducing the size of our printed receipts. Feedback from our stores has been very positive, and we look forward to evaluating other Epson technologies for use elsewhere in our stores."
Mark Michrina

Senior Analyst

“Improved access to medical imaging data can lead to faster diagnosis and treatment, which saves lives. The new Nautilus / Epson solution is more user friendly, faster, more reliable than our previous system, and we are very pleased with it.”

PACS Administrator

South Jersey Healthcare
"Epson's printing solutions have been a good fit for us due to the reliability and overall quality of the product. As more customers move toward remote deposit capture, versatile solutions like this from Epson become even more important as we work to provide customers with a broad range of options to meet their evolving needs."
Doug Hartsema

Director, Treasury Management

Huntington Bank
"With iTeller and the Epson TM-J9100, we have shorter teller lines, more customer-focused transactions, and up-to-date information for the teller and the customer. Tellers are better equipped to service customers, which enhances the overall customer experience."
Bill Hunter

President

EBANK
"We know Epson's industry-wide reputation for reliability, and selecting their TM-T88V was an environmentally-responsible decision. The substantial dollars saved on energy costs over the life of the product make this a smart business decision."
Oliver Lederer

IT Director for Store Operations

Regis Corporation
"We were looking for industry leadership to provide the reliability and service our customers could count on. With CaptureOne, customers have the flexibility of single-feed or batch options, above industry average two-year warranty, and a sleek, compact design. We are confident this new solution will speed up RDC adoption, due to the flexibility, reliability and overall ease of use."
Julie Berglund

VP of Payment Services

Bremer Bank
"We've always recommended Epson because of its longevity... These printers (Epson's TM-H6000III) reduce power consumption and address other environmental issues, which helps merchants when they talk to their communities about being green."
Steve Methvin

VP of Retail Technology and E-Commerce

Bozzutos
"These (Epson TM-H6000III) are good quality printers that alleviate jams, print quickly and save money since they require less ink."
Sherrie Palmer

Adams Super Food Stores
"The process for accepting checks has become much smoother since these printers (TM-H6000III with TransScan) are easy-to-use. We also are now receiving less bad checks."
Jennifer Blanchard

Manager

Geissler's Supermarket
"Epson has come through on top with this scanner. CaptureOne produced a 7-10% higher throughput than competitive models, mainly because of the practically non-existent MICR misreads and because the scanner initializes immediately – both key factors for saving time and increasing workflow efficiency. Epson’s overall reliability and performance is top-notch, and we want our customers to have the best product out there, period."
Toby Asplin

Strategic Partnership Officer

First National Bank of Omaha
"Our customers expect only the best technology solutions. The Epson brand offers ultimate reliability – the printers work consistently and seamlessly. Gilbarco is committed to meet the needs of our customers and Epson is an excellent partner to supply our POS and printer technology needs."
Amy Wilson

POS Marketing Manager

Gilbarco Veeder-Root
"We looked at many vendors, and Epson was the only company able to customize an interface for the legacy NCR system. We rolled out the Epson printers, which sped up our check-out and gave us time to complete development and pilot test our new POS System."
Ed Rennemann

CIO and VP of MIS

Crate and Barrel
"To deliver an exceptional customer experience, we knew that it was critical to improve the speed of service and efficiency in our stores. Our partnership with Epson allows us to meet these needs. The TM-T88IV is easy to use, and allows our associates to spend more quality time with our customers."
Craig Miller

Senior VP and CIO

Game Crazy
"Epson's CaptureOne allows us to enhance our remote deposit capture offering and deliver new features our customers have been asking for. With its built-in franker, logo endorsement and batch scanning features, CaptureOne gives us the flexibility to deliver added functionality that will differentiate U.S. Bank and carry our customers into the future."
Stephanie Schmitt

VP, Treasury Management, Product Management

U.S. Bank
"We have been an Epson customer for more than 10 years and we are very pleased with the durability of the (Epson TM-T88) product, its compatibility with our systems, and the overall quality of the printers."

Lawrence Sauder

"With Mobilink, we transitioned our associates from putting a sticker on every single item in each store to simply creating a shelf label printed by Epson — which equates to about 13% time savings in the overall product merchandising process."
Chad Richardson

"Liquor sales and check cashing services are a large part of our business. We plan to use the Epson printer to image checks and ID cards, lowering our overall liability, while speeding up transaction time for our customers."
Glenn Gibson

CIO

Magruder's Supermarkets
"We had a very short timeframe to get the new teller stations up and running. From the beginning, the Epson TM-H6000III printer worked well with our existing teller software application. Our tellers were trained and at ease with the printer features within an hour."
Teri Petrella

VP, Central Ohio Retail Operations Manager

Huntington Bank
"Since we installed the Epson mobile printers, our waitstaff is more readily available and that has absolutely increased sales. Our three-show Saturday nights end up totaling an 8½-hour shift, so battery life was important. This was a big factor in our decision. Ten hours is perfect — we can almost do four shows!"
Wende Curtis

Owner

Comedy Works
"To optimize space, we needed an all-in-one unit that combined a printer and a scanner. We looked at another manufacturer's solution, and Epson's TM-J9100 was designed with better functionality. In addition, we experienced Epson reliability with our existing TM-T88 printers, so we felt even more confident with our choice."
Mike Eaton

Software Developer

WestStar Credit Union
"Now that we're using the Epson TM-J9000 for image capture at our teller stations, we can assure our customers a deposit today is a credit today. We also reduced keystrokes at the teller line by 60%, which now gives our tellers more time to build relationships with customers."
Richard Green

IT Director

MCNB Banks
"We went from a printer and a stand-alone MICR reader to the Epson printer with excellent built-in MICR accuracy. The result is more space at the checkout counter — and overall better performance and reliability throughout our stores."
Conrad Dana

Director IT

The Kitchen Collection
"We selected Epson because they lead the way in cutting-edge printing technology for financial institutions. We are considering check imaging at the point of presentment, and the Epson printer allows us to upgrade to check and ID scanning when we're ready."
Robert H. Spicer

Executive VP and CIO

Chevy Chase Bank
"Epson's Mobilink has increased our efficiencies dramatically. We serve our guests faster, the staff makes better tips, and customers love the new technology. It's like having little POS terminals that you take with you everywhere."
Nelson Head

Owner, Founder and Chairman

Dixie Bones
"Battery life and environmental concerns were significant factors in our decision-making process, and Epson Mobilink printers fit the bill. Our managers can focus their attention on operations rather than administrative tasks, improving the accuracy and quality of our service."
Tal Wall

Sr. VP and Chief Administrative Officer

Freight Handlers, Inc.
"Only Epson integrated digital check imaging into their thermal POS printer. We needed to replace our impact printers and we knew electronic check conversion with imaging was in our future, so Epson's product was a perfect fit for us."
Jennifer Kenneally

VP and Treasurer

Price Chopper
"Color makes a difference. We're seeing different and better coupon redemption rates, and different and better response rates (with the Catalina/Epson full-color inkjet printers)."
Steve Smith

Director of Marketing

Sweetbay Supermarket
"The new solution (Epson TM-H6000II with TransScan) reduces check handling, which saves time, eliminates employee error and reduces fraud. Any time we can make operations better and smoother, the better off we are."
