Need information to get printing of words on blank face Jumbo cards. Or is it better to contact a card making company to have them make up the whole deck. Who should I contact for this service?

Do you just need a few made or are you looking to have a lot done?

Okay....
Becuse if it was just a couple you could easily print them yourself. But for a large quantity better to go though someone like card shark. Ryan. |

Most others will want a larger order of a 1000.

Hi Ryan - thanks for the 'print them yourself' tip. Would a fairly decent regular inkjet printer work for blankfaced cards? Wondering if the ink 'fixes' well to the semi gloss.

I have tried printing on blank face cards on my Canon printer but it does not come out very clean, its look pretty bad the ink does not print well on glossed cards so if you have any suggestions please let us know. I have many ideas put have no one to help me put them on cards.

I have printed on blank cards using an inkjet printer.
It worked fine but my blanks were not glossy. I bought them many years ago but unfortunately, I don't remember where I bought them.

Yeah a standard ink jet printer works fine but you have to spray them to seal the ink in.
1. Print image on paper 2. Put double sided tape on image 3. Stick card to paper 4. Put paper back in printer and print (image will print on card) 5. Spray with Krylon workable Fixtif #1306 6. Let dry and put in deck and give it a buch if shuffles to get card back in right form. Ryan |

Since Jumbo cards are a pretty decent size you might be able to take them to Kinkos and have them try to print on them. Since they use laser printers that use toner and not ink, it might work since toner melts onto the cards. Worth a try and if it works would be the easiest (though maybe the costliest) solution.
