The history of the impact printer began more than thirty years ago, with the EP-101. Over the decades, impact printers have steadily evolved. Never complacent as the frontrunner, EPSON has continued to innovate and refine its impact printer technology. Our impact models are highly reliable, cost effective, and compact. These characteristics have helped EPSON win an overwhelming and lasting share of the business printer market.
The advanced technology, know-how, and experience EPSON gained in impact printing has been transferred to a mastery of thermal printing. Like our impact printers, our thermal printers boast extremely high reliability, an EPSON hallmark. Add to that the quiet operation and attractive print of the thermal printer line, and it is easy to see why these products continue to rapidly grow into new applications in a variety of fields.
Widely acknowledged as the ideal for printing high quality color images from a PC, inkjet technology offers customer benefits such as fast, silent, graphic-rich printout. Even more interesting is the fact that inkjet printers can use plain paper rolls, and offer the possibility of color output (not just black, red, or purple, as is the case today). EPSON’s expertise in inkjet technology, combined with its understanding of the demands of the customer’s environment, means that it is in a unique position to meet this challenge.
