As every model of machine is different we can only suggest requesting samples and trying for yourself. Below is an extract from an email received from David, who recently requested some samples to try on his machines at home, and this is what he had to say.

Thank you very much for the prompt delivery of the sample cards (290gsm and 250gsm Super Smooth).

For your information and possible use to your customers, I have printed the cards on my printers, a Canon Pixma iP 4000 and an Epson Stylus Color 880, with the following observations :-

Both printed out satisfactorily on both cards. The 290g card fed through the Canon with no problem, the Epson needed the card being helped by hand, although having said that I don't how it would have fed through if there had been a few cards in the support tray. I put the paper type as "Plain paper" in the Canon and "Matte heavyweight paper" in the Epson.

I hope this of some use to you and I shall be visiting your website to place an order.

If you have purchased cards from our website and have any comments on overprinting on desktop printers please forward your remarks to sharon@dscrafts.co.uk

Many thanks
