TIPA wins confirm Epson’s leadership in professional imaging products

Sydney 29 April 2011: Epson has asserted its position as a leader in professional imaging by winning three of the most important photo and imaging technology accolades at the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) Awards 2011.

Epson products to win a TIPA award this year are the Epson Stylus Photo R3000 - the ‘Best Expert Photo Printer’, the Epson Stylus Pro 4900 - ‘Best Large Format Printer’, and the Epson Perfection V330 Photo - ‘Best Photo Scanner’.

“Being recognised for the Best Expert Photo Printer and Best Photo Scanner two years in a row is confirmation of Epson’s outstanding achievements and continuous innovation. We aim to always exceed the creative needs of professional photographers and graphic artists, and these products are the outcome of that desire,” said Mike Pleasants, Director of Marketing Communications for Epson Australia.

TIPA consists of 29 member magazines from 14 countries around the world, 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 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.
