with our seamless and smart printing solutions, e|tab can further
facilitate the way customers want to be served and expedite
ordering while ensuring reduced operating delays."
"Every restaurant customer has experienced the frustration of
having no access to online ordering at their favorite restaurant or
their order request being missed or delivered late," said
Jeff Stein, president at e|tab. "We
were looking to partner with a printer company that could
complement our self-service mobile app to provide restaurant
operators with an easy and reliable solution that integrates with
their current kitchen workflow. Our joint solution with Epson
enables them to prepare orders more quickly, more accurately and
more efficiently than ever before."
