Triton announces end of production for Superscrip
As a leader in the ATM industry, Triton continues to refine our products and services to better serve our customers. In 1992, we developed the first scrip unit. Now demand for that model has declined and we are ending production. Triton continues to introduce new products that better serve the evolving ATM market.
On May 1, 2005, Triton will discontinue the production of Triton’s Superscrip product line.
Triton will continue to take orders for this product until May 1, 2005. Free telephone support will be available for the Superscrip until May 1, 2006.
Additionally, Triton will continue to stock spare parts and provide technical support until May 1, 2010.
Please contact your Aptus sales representative to place your order for Superscrip while supplies last.
