Epson’s Top 5 POS Printers for Retail
Back in October 2009 Epson announced the broadening of its thermal printer line to leverage its core strengths and expand into new retail segments. Since then, the company has introduced three new single-station thermal printers, each with its own unique set of features and benefits that appeal to different types of retailers. With the addition of these products to its existing thermal printer family, Epson offers the most comprehensive line of single-station thermal POS printers to satisfy the needs of every segment of the retail industry, at every price point.
In addition to Epson’s single-station thermal printers, the company also offers multifunction, or hybrid, printers for retailers requiring high-speed printing, check processing and endorsement. Similar to the approach with single-station thermal printers, Epson recently announced a more affordable multifunction printer geared toward retailers without the need for slip printing capability.
All of Epson’s “Top 5 POS Printers for Retail” are ENERGY STAR qualified, boast the highest energy efficiency in each of their respective classes and offer substantial cost savings with built-in paper reduction features. In addition, for over 15 years, Epson printers have been outfitted with interchangeable interface boards, which allow them to print wirelessly or to be placed onto older generation and proprietary terminals. With over a million installed today, Epson Connect-It interfaces allow retailers to take advantage of more advanced printing functionality, without committing to an entire POS refresh. Epson's wireless Connect-It interfaces provide retailers with flexible options that complement growing mobile POS handheld solutions.
