Epson has been presented with three of Europe's most important photo and imaging technology accolades at the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) Awards 2010.
Epson products recognised by TIPA were the Epson EH-TW5500, named as the 'Best Pro-Photo Projector'; the Epson Stylus Pro 3880, which won 'Best Expert Photo Printer'; and finally the Epson Perfection V600 Photo, which was placed 'Best Photo Scanner'.
TIPA consists of 29 member magazines from 13 countries, making it one of the largest and most influential photographic and imaging press associations globally. Every year the TIPA editors vote for the best products introduced into Europe during the previous 12 months, taking into account innovation, cutting-edge technology, design, ease-of-use and the price to performance ratio.
Mary McNulty, Head of PR and Communications at Epson Europe, says: "Epson has shown year after year that we are committed to developing products that are technologically innovative and that set new standards in the industry. We are honored to be presented with three TIPA awards this year which will fuel our determination to continue providing our customers with outstanding digital imaging products."
