Epson Introduces New Compact Thermal Receipt Printer Optimized for Self-Checkout and Self-Ordering Kiosks

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., Oct. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As self-ordering and self-checkout continues to increase in touch-less solutions, retailers require durable, easy-to-use printers to ensure customer satisfaction.

Illuminated attention and error status LED alerts allow for fast troubleshooting and error resolutions in the field, and the EU-m30 is secure with features like restricted front cover access and button cover options to prevent unauthorized printer access.
