Epson Launches New Tech As Demand For Self-Service Retail Experiences Surges

To serve the growing demand for self-service options in the retail and hospitality environments, Japanese electronics giant, Epson, is launching a new kiosk receipt printer.

The EU-m30 Kiosk Thermal Receipt Printer features a sleek design and it offers remote monitoring support to minimize downtime in kiosk deployments.

The launch comes at a time when a growing share of businesses are turning to self-service options to improve their in-store shopping experience. According to Epson, the percentage of companies rolling out self-checkout in the next two years within the grocery, drug, and mass-market merchant segment is expected to be 178 percent higher than the share that currently offers self-checkout options.

“The world has changed in the last 18 months, and self-service is a growing trend that isn’t going anywhere. As businesses adjust operations in order to best serve customers, we provide the optimal POS solutions to maximize profitability,” said Mauricio Chacon, group product manager, Business Systems, Epson America, Inc.

“The new EU-m30 offers kiosk-friendly features for both new and existing kiosk designs, and delivers durability, ease-of-use, remote management, and easy troubleshooting that retail and hospitality environments require.”

Additionally, the new solution features a unique bezel option for efficient kiosk integration, which helps prevent paper jams in a kiosk environment.

The new thermal receipt printer will become available for sales through Epson authorized channel partners in Q4 2021.
