TransAct Technologies Launches Expanded Presence at Global Gaming Expo

           New, Larger Interactive Booth Showcases Printers At Work

    WALLINGFORD, Conn., Sept. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TransAct
Technologies Incorporated (Nasdaq: TACT), a leading producer of
transaction-based printers for customers worldwide, today announced it would
have a greatly expanded presence at this year's Global Gaming Expo (G2E)
taking place September 13-15 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth #1212.
This year the company will feature its key printers in a larger, 1200 sq. ft.
interactive booth, which will allow gaming customers to experience the
company's printers at work in four specific printer zones; Epic Languages,
Epic Promotions, Epic Performance and Epic Upgrades.
    Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of
TransAct Technologies, said, "The theme for us at this year's G2E is 'Epic
Success', reflecting the industry-wide acceptance and success of our Epic
950(TM) printer which was launched in 2004, and the launch of our newest
printer, the Epic 630(TM).  We will showcase the exclusive capabilities of the
Epic 950 that earned it the industry's overwhelming approval in the four
distinct product zones.  For example, the Epic Promotions zone will
demonstrate the patented technology of the Epic 950 to flexibly print both
promotional coupons and ticket vouchers on the same printer.  And in Epic
Languages, we will showcase TransAct's growing presence in global markets with
ticket printing in several different languages, including Chinese, English,
Russian and Spanish.  Overall, we are confident that our new, larger and more
interactive booth will provide a quality experience for TransAct customers at
this year's important G2E."
    Other featured Epic product zones at G2E include Epic Performance
demonstrating the high performance features of the Epic 950 and Epic Upgrades
where the interactive experience will include an exciting timed swap out of
older technology printers for the TransAct Epic 950.  Epic Upgrades showcases
the intelligent patented design that allows for extremely fast and easy
printer exchange in any slot.  The newly launched Epic 630(TM) printer,
targeted for the huge European and Asian AWP, SWP, VLT, Kiosks and other
gaming type machines found in venues outside of casinos, will complete the
Epic zones with its own exclusive launch area within the TransAct booth.
    TransAct Services Group will also have a much larger presence this year,
with a dedicated area to highlight the increasing global service options that
TransAct offers.  This Services area is a must-see stop in the TransAct booth
for all slot technical professionals.
