Epson has asserted its position as a leader in the professional imaging industry by winning three of the most important photo and imaging technology accolades at the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) Awards 2011.

Kristin Saus-Opuszynski, Senior Business Manager ProPhoto, Epson Europe, said: “At Epson we continually look for new solutions and ways to enhance our product range, in order to meet the changing needs of our customers. Winning three prestigious TIPA awards this year is testament to that commitment and recognition of our achievements as a result.”

Every year the TIPA editors vote for the best products introduced to the market during the previous 12 months, taking into account innovation, cutting-edge technology, design, ease-of-use and the price to performance ratio of the products.
