TransAct to demonstrate technology at OIGA
The company will display in Booth #513 at OIGA 2017 its full suite of gaming technology and printing solutions.
US.- TransAct Technologies Incorporated, the global leader in software-driven technology and printing solutions for high-growth markets, announced today that it will demonstrate a full suite of its innovative gaming technology and print solutions at the 2017 Oklahoma Indiana Gaming Association Conference and Tradeshow (OIGA 2017), which will be held July 24-26 at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City.
On display (Booth #513) will be a range of the Company’s industry-leading Epic® casino and gaming ticket printers, including the new Epic Edge™, as well as the latest versions of its unique Epicentral® promotion and bonusing system.
Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct Technologies, commented: “We are delighted to return to Oklahoma City where we will demonstrate a full suite of our gaming technology and print solutions at OIGA 2017. As casino operators of all sizes increasingly rely on the printed coupon to drive play and grow revenue, TransAct’s solutions are uniquely positioned to deliver the results operators seek. We will demonstrate at OIGA 2017 that our full solution suite, including the all-new Epic Edge printer and our powerful Epicentral versions, is the best-in-class way to deliver valuable printed coupons directly to players at the slot machine or electronic table game of their choice.”
The next-generation Epic Edge builds on the proven performance of TransAct’s industry-leading Epic 950® to bring a host of exciting technological advances to the casino floor. The Epic Edge is the first ticket-in/ticket out (“TITO”) printer to offer 300 dpi print resolution, a 50 percent improvement over current printers that delivers razor sharp barcodes, improves bill validator acceptance and reduces attendant calls. Improved print resolution also allows for more attractive coupon designs which enhance Epicentral implementations. The Epic Edge also features an adjustable ticket bucket that accommodates smaller tickets which save money and reduce paper usage.
Also, as a drop-in replacement for the Epic 950, operators can easily run the Epic Edge and Epic 950 side-by-side. Other key features of the new Epic Edge include: Single outer chassis with Serial, USB and Netplex ports to allow the printer to work with any machine type, hot swap capability to eliminate game downtime, two high-speed interfaces for firmware and graphics updates: USB and Micro SD. Moreover, it also includes upgraded ServerPort™ connection and rugged metal chassis design
Epicentral is the industry’s only enterprise-level promotion and bonusing software suite, allowing casino operators to deliver targeted promotions to customers in real-time directly at the slot machine and electronic table game. It works with all existing slot management systems and games to provide casino slot and marketing teams with the unparalleled ability to create a floor-wide bonusing environment that has been proven to drive increased customer time on device and revenue for the casino operator.
Two distinct Epicentral versions that enhance the capabilities of this unique solution will be on display at OIGA 2017: Epicentral v3.8, which allows operators to run multiple simultaneous promotions, create games within games, offer multi-user/multi-site promotions, run different promotions on different slot game banks, segment players by tier and promote to different levels of uncarded players. It also features the ability to redeem, print or reprint bonuses at multiple locations, an enhanced user interface and new reporting options. And Epicentral SE, that allows operators to use the existing bonusing capabilities of their slot management systems to offer bonuses to players as a printed coupon by leveraging Epicentral’s Print Manager and Design Center modules. It also provides for an upgrade path to a full Epicentral implementation should an operator seek to expand their promotion and bonusing options beyond the capabilities of their existing slot management system.
TransAct will also demonstrate at OIGA 2017 an array of its award-winning Epic gaming device printers, including: Epic 950, Epic Table Top Enclosure and Epic 880.
