By: TransAct Technologies Incorporated Located in booth 6262, the TransAct team will be on hand to demonstrate the most innovative new products in the company’s history. “We are bringing our Ithaca line of printers into the next generation with three new products, and we believe our current customers and potential new customers will be extremely impressed with the flexibility of the Ithaca® 9000, as well as the technology, speed and cost-saving ability of the Ithaca® 9700 and Ithaca® 9800 Food Safety Terminals. We have reached out to our customers and their feedback has led us to invest in the new Food Safety Terminal as we see a large market opportunity in front of us. These Food Safety Terminals will be marketed into many new and existing markets including restaurants, hospitality, casinos, colleges and universities, hospitals, cruise ships and locations that are in much need for food safety and labeling when preparing food and ready-to-go offerings. Further, with the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act signed into law last year, there is now a significant need to ensure food products are properly labeled by restaurants and other food service preparers,” said Bart Shuldman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Transact. The newest Ithaca products include the following: Ithaca® 9700 – The Ithaca® 9700 Food Safety Terminal is TransAct’s initial entry into the food safety and prep labeling market, helping to make food prep safer and faster by saving time and helping to cut food waste and reducing the risk of spoilage. This device features an 8.4 inch easy-to-read color touch screen with a choice of one or two printer configurations to print food safety labels that are needed when food items are opened by chefs and prep stations and then put back into refrigerators, freezers or on the shelf. These items have a specific shelf life and the label will clearly inform the restaurants and food establishments when the item expires, as opposed to using hand-written labels that are time consuming to implement, costly and difficult to read. In addition, the Ithaca® 9700 also prints labels for grab-and-go items such as salads, sandwiches and soups and will allow food establishments to print ingredients, calories and sell-by dates. It has an easy snap-in/snap- The terminals can be sold with a PC-based software companion utility for quick menu and inventory updates allowing establishments to easily incorporate this device in their daily routines. TransAct has been invited to attend and launch the new Ithaca® 9700 Food Safety Terminal today at a convention held by one of the largest quick service restaurant companies in the world. For more information, please http:/www.transact- Ithaca® 9800 – The Ithaca® 9800 Food Safety Terminal is similar to the Ithaca® 9700, with an added controller that allows the device to be connected to existing software systems used by restaurants and other establishments to totally automate the process of food preparation and labeling. This terminal features a built-in web browser, video capability, speakers and WiFi connectivity to allow automatic downloading of menu items, recipes and movies to show food prep people how to prepare the meals, while also automating the completion of inventory transactions once food items are prepared or completed. The Ithaca® 9800 is available in a two-printer configuration and will be launched at the National Restaurant Show on Saturday, May 5.
