I worked with Toni Hubbard-Salem to purchase a new badge printer for my company. Toni was phenomenal, and the quote I received was a lot less than the other company I was working with (IDville). The equipment came today and the entire experience couldnt have went smoother. Glad we decided to give them a chance.

We at the Georgetown Police Department have been using the KidPrint system from Total ID Solutions for several years. We use the system to use as identification for kids, and print identification cards for all city employees. We recently upgraded to a new system and Dualys printer. The system is very user friendly and set up is easy…
