FutureLogic, Inc., the leading manufacturer of thermal ticket printers for cashless gaming, has announced that the Casino Espinho, a property of the Portuguese gaming group Solverde, has selected FutureLogic's GEN2 printer as the standard gaming printer for all of the casino's ticket-in/ticket-out (TITO) slot machines and gaming platforms. With more than 1000 gaming machines, Casino Espinho hosts one of the largest slot machine venues in Europe. In an effort to streamline operations and improve the gaming experience, the casino will integrate FutureLogic's GEN2 printers and IGT's EZ-Pay™ system with all new and upgraded TITO slots and video games.

Senhor Fernando Fernandes da Silva, Director General of Casino Espinho, said: "After evaluating our options, we chose the leader in gaming printer technology. FutureLogic's relationship with global game manufacturers, their default status in casinos throughout Europe and their focus on customer satisfaction are precisely what we need for successful implementation of our new TITO installations."

The feature-rich GEN2 printer satisfies Casino Espinho's quality and performance requirements with reliability features such as ITH™ (Intelligent Ticket Handling) technology to eliminate torn, smeared, or crumpled tickets, 50% more paper capacity than other printers, and a dedicated port for firmware upgrades, and senhor Joaquim Pinto, Assistant Director of Game Services of Casino Espinho, added: "With the number of machines on our floor, reliability is a critical attribute for any component. FutureLogic's reputation for dependable, easy-to-maintain hardware and innovative software, as well as their commitment to advances in TITO technology make them the obvious choice as our preferred supplier."

Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Glendale, California, FutureLogic designs and builds high-reliability electromechanical assembly solutions for nearly every printing need. As the undisputed leader in super-robust thermal printer technology, FutureLogic is the industry's premier supplier of thermal printers for casino gaming, promotional equipment, kiosk, industrial, parking, gas pumps and medical applications. In July 2004 the company founded FutureLogic Europe Ltd to provide direct sales and engineering support for the growing OEM thermal printer markets in Europe.
