TransAct Technologies’ Epic 950® printer and EPICENTRAL™ Print System can now be linked to casino slots by a secure wireless connection. The products have been integrated into the wireless system created by TransAct’s strategic partner, Leap Forward Gaming (LFG) of Reno, Nevada.
“We were seeking a technology solution that could easily scale with us and support future growth initiatives,” said Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct.
“Leap Forward Gaming offered unmatched experience and expertise in the integration of the EPICENTRAL Print System and Epic 950 printer with its secure SaffariNet® wireless system architecture, and was able to meet our needs in providing a strong, feature-rich secure system. Now casinos will have the choice to use a secured wireless system throughout the casino floor that will wirelessly connect all their slot machines to our EPICENTRAL Print System.”
Leap Forward’s wireless network will also allow the Epic 950 and EPICENTRAL to receive commands directly from the casino. That allows operators to generate coupons and other player-specific offers quickly and easily.
“As a leading wireless technology provider for the gaming industry, Leap Forward Gaming is focused on delivering innovative and reliable solutions that drive profitable growth and simplify casino operations,” said Ali Saffari, LFG’s CEO.
“We value this new level of partnership with TransAct Technologies and are proud to work with a company that shares our vision of providing industry-leading technology solutions.”
