When looking for a photo ID system, many become fixed on the printer. This is natural since the printer is usually the most expensive piece in the system. The only problem with this approach is that there are a number of elements to an ID system, including the printer, ribbon, software, and camera. If all the effort is focused on just the printer, you may be disappointed with the other aspects of your system.
Bundled ID systems are often referred to as starter kits because they come with everything you need to get you started. Rather than just settling for one of these pre-packaged solutions, make sure you fully understand what is coming with the system, as well as its features and limitations. Is the camera point and click; does the software save a record of the cards created; can the printer print on both sides of the card? You want to make sure your system performs as needed, rather than spending unnecessary money adding items later.
