patseguin Global Moderator Posted June 22, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted June 22, 2015 This is not really a hobby but I couldn't figure out where to put this. For a marketing campaign, I am design postcards for my business. I made a 2 sided design and bought glossy postcards from Office Max and printed about 20 to start. I sent one to my Dad just to make sure it went through the system OK. He showed it to me and the ink was partially smeared like it wasn't dry. I'm guess it happened running through a sorting machine. Is there a way to prevent that from happening? Maybe a better quality card stock? I'm using an Epson ink jet so I am thinking it may not be avoidable and I'll have to use a professional printer. Any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xendrome Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Color laserjet might be your only good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montage Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I have done this before on a large scale. We used a wax printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
