There are a large variety of formats available.

I am involved with a conference program and we have struggled for years with producing packets,  registration and name tags. Recently I saw a small system that combined a lap top, database, and production of name tags. I did not catch the name of the software. So I know such a thing is out there. Can anybody tell me what types of products to buy so we can use this in our conference program? Is anyone lese doing a similar thing? Laptop, printer, software, wireless access products? Suggest how to set it up too.
 
Many thanks.
