HAMDEN, CT. - July 10, 2008 - TransAct Technologies Incorporated (Nasdaq:TACT), a global leader in market-specific printers for transaction based industries, today announced that its Epic 950® printer has been installed in all 1,500 slot games at the new MGM Grand at Foxwoods® casino in Connecticut.

"We are extremely pleased to again be chosen as the printer of choice by the Foxwoods Resort," said Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct Technologies. "When the transition to TITO technology began some years ago, Foxwoods chose our thermal slot machine printers exclusively for the 6,500 slot games on their casino floor. We are very pleased with Foxwoods' confidence in TransAct's printer technology and their decision to once again choose our Epic 950® slot machine printer as the sole printing solution for this latest multi-million dollar expansion."

Dennis Cavanaugh, Director of Gaming Operations at MGM Foxwoods, said, "Patrons at Foxwoods expect a premier-class gaming experience. We want to ensure that we continue to deliver the best that the industry has to offer. Key to achieving this goal is offering the latest games with the most advanced technology. TransAct's Epic 950® was a clear choice for us. Its innovative technology and proven performance deliver benefits to both our players and our staff."
