Would this work to print out playing cards? (deck of cards) Thanks!

no, I don't think this is heavy enough for that application, and if you wanted a glossy finish - they would not be glossy either. so, they would not shuffle well. however if it is for a kid birthday or something, and you do not need it to be super heavy, or actually feel like playing cards, it might work OK.

Deck of cards are thicker than my paper. If I put two of these papers together, it should be about the right thickness as deck of cards. I am going to buy thicker paper the next time I order. My printer can print my paper with no problems. Now, just an idea, go look into Silhouette Cameo Starter Bundle Kit, this is very interesting, I think you will like to try it. I plan to buy it very soon. Take care Thomas

I use this with an hp printer and it works great. I haven't used it for business cards, but I don't see why you couldn't. Seems like it would be easier to use pre-scored paper for that, but if you have a paper cutter this would probably work fine.

I called Epson directly with this question, and the rep said "To be honest...." this printer isn't really designed to handle the "stiffer" paper, like cardstock for greeting cards or business cards. I appreciate their honesty! because I was all set to get this printer, but it turns out it isn't designed with one of the major functions I want. ((Weird -- it makes coloring book pages and prints on DVDs -- but won't print on cardstock?!)Back to the drawing board.....

I think it can. I print onto postcards so if your print program can input paper size then it should work.

It should. I used this also for wedding invitation . It just took a little long for ink to dry. Heavy card stock. I used ink jet printer

I wouldn't know for sure, but if there is a converter/adapter available I should think that would work. It's a nice machine. My son has used it for many screen print projects. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Cardscan confirms it will not work. You may be able to do some fancy work but I returned mine.

We use it to prototype an application. So we didn't use it to its full potential. But I can tell from my printing experience with this printer, it will print 2 to 3 cards per min both sides. I did not try one side only printing. It might be faster if you are printing one side. I hope I answered your question.

That's exactly what it's for. I added this to my printer so that I can print on letter, legal, or a combination of both at the same time. I print multi-player documents (100+ pages) that are a combination of letter and legal size documents. I used to have to seperate the documents into two sets and print individually...no more. This was worth the money.

I use it regularly with 110# card stock and it will print on it. You might need to watch the feed. I've not had a jam but I have had more than one piece of paper try to run through at the same time. Overall, I'd say this is a very dependable and versatile printer.

It will work. Size is your only problem since the machine only uses 6 inch by 12 inch paper. That will make a 3-inch card if you print the short way. I could be as big as 6 by 6 if you change direction. I hope that makes sense. Sue.

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone! Sounds like some people got lucky but that in general this printer is not the one to get if you want to print greeting cards or business cards....the search goes on! :-D

Not really. I tried scanning OLD poloroid photos that were glued to the back of cardboard, you may be too young to remember those, but it didn't like those too much and I used my big copier/scanner for those. Also, it likes some old newpaper and not other so I would be careful about what you put thru. It did an amazing job on my photos, tho, like we got printed in the old days from Walgreen's so you can compare your project to those items. My Mom uses it for her printed out geneology that is on regular 20# printer paper and it does great. Don't know if I answered your questions but I tried.

It should work for you. I got it for magic cards but they are the same size as baseball cards.

Do you mean ink jet printer? The answer would most likely be "no" because these cards are VERY thick and rigid. Even if you were able to feed them through the printer, the card color would show through or muddy any ink colors except black or another very dark color.

No, this does not print. It pushes an image into the paper by pressing down on the paper. You need sheets with the images you want to put into the paper. And they are purchased separately. Generally flowers, borders, etc for scrap booking and card making.
