Printer model: Pronto100

The issue I had with the printer was resolved with speed and professionalism.

Printer model: Magicard 300

Thank you so much! The ID printer is working great and we really appreciate the honesty of your technicians! We could have easily been billed for repairs that weren't done, as our printer is no longer under warranty, but you didn\'t charge us at all. The technician superstar told me that it was a simple loose wire, which he reattached, and they shipped it back at no charge. Thank you!

Printer model: Pronto

We ended up not getting the piece repaired due to the cost but support was great about getting back to me which I appreciate.

Printer model: Prima 4

Support were very helpful but sadly we didn't manage to get the 2010 machine working again and I had to buy a new machine.
