Boston, MA, November 6, 2011 - Epson America, Inc., a leading supplier of value-added banking and payments solutions, today at the Association for Financial Professionals Conference (AFP) introduced its new TM-S2000 multifunction payments device. Epson's new, feature-packed TM-S2000 offers industry-leading functionality, such as the fastest check scanning speed in its class, the highest MICR accuracy available and best-in-class image quality. Additional features include an optional 3-track magnetic stripe reader, a two-sided ID scanner, up to 15 lines of endorsement printing and an industry-leading two-year warranty. Epson's TM-S2000 delivers maximum functionality in an impressively small footprint and is ideally suited for high-volume RDC applications where speed, accuracy and maximum throughput are essential to workflow efficiency.
"The TM-S2000 delivers top of the line quality," commented Mike Helm, Director of Sales and Marketing, Epson Business Systems Division. "It's designed for businesses who need a robust RDC solution and also want to perform other customer service transactions without investing in additional hardware."

Epson's TM-S2000 incorporates OCR-A and OCR-B font recognition, which is typically used on computer-generated invoices. When the customer's payment coupon is scanned, account information can be retrieved automatically, facilitating fast retrieval of customer account information.
