Epson Receipt Printer and Projector Win Prestigious Japanese 2012 Good Design Awards

Tekkie Tekkie Muna (I wan to savor the moment of triumph, we need to celebrate success), did you know that my favorite printer brand keeps on winning awards for their superior and innovative products?

Epson today announced that two of its products had been recognized in the Japanese 2012 Good Design Awards. The Epson TM-T88V-i receipt printer and EB-485Wi projector were commended for their contributions to lifestyle enriching design.

Epson TM-88V-i
This compact receipt printer contains built-in POS terminal functions, and can be easily incorporated into small POS systems. This product, which was created with an eye to retailers using a cloud-based system, allows web printing and direct control of touch panels, barcode scanners, etc.

Judges’ comments: Displays and barcode scanners are important elements of POS systems in addition to the terminals and the printers. It’s essential for such products to be easy to use from the standpoint of both the retailer and the systems integrator, and must fit into retail environments of all types. We highly evaluate the way in which this product fulfills such requirements with a utilitarian, universal shape that efficiently combines two blocks into a single unit. Despite the difficulty in dealing with the two-block resin components, the product achieves a high level of design that includes attention to detail and a feeling of high precision.

More than 30,000 years ago since it was first made, bread has become a global food staple enjoyed by millions of people regardless of nationality, religion, political belief, or socio-economic status.

For several generations, bread was, is, and will always be, a vital part of humans’ physical (nutritional) and emotional sustenance, and this fact encouraged bread lovers all over the world to celebrate this via the “World Bread Day,” a global and significant event every October 16 that espouses the philosophy of “sharing” and “breaking” of bread as a meaningful and symbolic humanitarian act.
