What Our Customers Say...
Our experience with PrintSafe was excellent from our first enquiry through to the follow up after delivery. We bought the machine to automate the printing of date codes onto our customers’ labels, rather than sticking labels on by hand. There was a clear cost benefit saving and pay back for the machinery was just over a year. The engineer who set up the machine and provided training was first-rate. I would happily recommend PrintSafe to any other business.
