| "Our solution will evolve into full Check 21-compliant electronic presentment next year, but we are already realizing the benefits of imaging (with Epson's TM-J9100) at the teller window. Once we start down the Check 21 path, our members will benefit from quicker availability of funds, and our managers can use the images to oversee procedures and authorizations, which will minimize teller error and streamline our operations." |

| "We needed to modify the messages displayed on the wall without incurring significant expenses for paper, ink, and labor. We selected the Epson wall projection system because it was the easiest to use, had the brightest display, and had the crispest image that was sharp enough to draw people's attention." |

With the Symbol EDAs and the Epson mobile printers, the credit card never leaves the customer's sight. The environment is safer and the customers feel more secure. You can't put a price tag on that." |

| "We wanted a better, cheaper, faster way to display ads to the tens of thousands of customers who climb our stairs each year. We expected a two-year payback with the implementation of Epson’s wall projection due to cost reductions from not printing banners. However, we’ve presented more material than we thought, and we’ve reduced our expected payback time considerably." |

| "At Magruder's, one key to improving front-end payment processing has been the deployment of Epson's TM-H6000II multifunction printer with TransScan digital check imaging and ProofPlus ID scanning as part of the company's POS system rollout. A major driver behind the decision to deploy was Magruder's check cashing business. Combined with the chain's alcohol and tobacco sales, the check-cashing service gave Magruder's reason to seek out check and ID imaging capability to reduce liability as well as deter fraud while streamlining the check-cashing service." |

| "Since kiosks are usually located in the middle of the sales floor or near the store entrance, cabling was both difficult and expensive to install. At ShopRite, the RMS-Kiosk from RMS-TOUCH uses NCR EasyPoint 42 kiosks, Epson TM-U220 wireless printers, and a Linksys router to eliminate wires, external IP bridges, and external power supplies. Orders from the kiosks print at the deli on wireless (Epson) printers with the customer phone number included for order identification. Some stores have multiple (Epson) printers for their Kosher and regular delicatessens, all using the store's IP-based network." |

| "Virgin Entertainment Group believes it may have found an edge in the deployment of interactive marketing through a digital signage application with vendor partners Epson America and Canadian software inventor GestureTek. Virgin Megastores aims to be as trendy as the stars it attracts, so to walk into its restyled, tri-level Times Square location and have the Nirvana baby ‘swimming' at your every move shouldn't seem all that unique. Retailers wrestle with finding ways to spur excitement and sales." |

| "Of the more than four million Epson printers sold, many into the hospitality sector, about half are customized. Epson printers are used in many Dunkin' stores, and Epson's willingness to customize products has been the key to success. Epson has modified its firmware so that Dunkin' franchisees who had been using printers from other manufacturers could easily switch to Epson." |
