Clear answers to the questions customers usually ask about ID cards, card printing and in-house printer supplies.
Ask the ACB teamCan I order several personalised ID cards together?＋
Yes. Create each person’s card, review every name, photograph and detail, then place the complete staff set as one order.
Can ACB print cards if I already have the artwork?＋
Yes. Send the artwork and project details to the team for checking and a quotation. We can also help with variable names, numbers, barcodes, QR codes and photographs.
Do you supply RFID and access-control cards?＋
Yes. ACB supplies printed and blank RFID cards for common access-control technologies, including MIFARE, DESFire, Paxton, SALTO and HID requirements.
Can you help me choose an ID card printer and ribbon?＋
Yes. Tell us how often you print, whether cards are single or double sided, and what type of card stock you use. We can help narrow down the printer and compatible consumables.
Design online or talk the project through with ACB.
