David, The picture of the NEC LS 21 10 printer ....at the NEC website..... is identical to the IDX TP-600......same machine. I think this relationship is still in effect. Also....read the first PR by Printrak on California......They are doing the afis.....and software at remote locations.....but no mention of the supply of fingerprint capture workstations. No mention of the input readers........IDX may still be there. We did do Afirm for LA county with EDS.....our equipment is operating with the Printrak afis now. Here is the PR from Printrak.....(whose stock has now doubled!) Working in partnership with prime contractor EDS, Printrak is providing the matching engine that will compare fingerprints of welfare applicants to a database of 7 million records in an effort to prevent duplicate enrollments. A statewide network will connect fingerprint capture workstations at welfare offices in all of the state's counties to the central database in the state's capital. Printrak will also provide software components for EDS workstations in local offices that ensure the quality of fingerprint images before they are transmitted to the central database. Printrak's contract with EDS is valued at $3.4 million. EDS earlier integrated Printrak fingerprint identification technology in the award-winning Los Angeles Country AFIRM system. According to an Ernst & Young audit (1994) the program saved the county $116.4 million over a 26-month period. The new system is 10 times larger in terms of database size and anticipated transaction volume, according to Dawn Wilder, client delivery executive at EDS' Los Angeles facility.
