Which printer do you recommend to give the best results with your blank PVC cards and trays?

I use Epson Stylus Photo R280. I bought this printer specifically to use with my blank PVC card.

I've been using it with the Artisan 50 to print ID's for a local group we are running.... Make sure to wipe the tray with a baby wipe and then a dry towel after each print.

I used the epson artisan 50 and I had no success, bought the pvc card with magnetic strip fron china is perhaps why it did not work. I had a bad resolution and when slid my finger on printed pvc card look like blurred and wet.

I use the Epson Stylus R280 with my PVC cards, and I have been thoroughly satisfied with the results. The only thing you will have to figure out is how to set the dimensions of your image to print properly when using the tray. After a few failures I came up with a good template. You'll figure out how to work within the limitations.

First, not all 110# card stock is made alike. You need to make sure to use long grain, and the flexibility should be pretty high.Second, you may have to manually feed it. The sharp curve on pickup is likely to jam from the tray because of the physics.Third, you may have to post-fuse the toner. A clothes iron on "wool" (highest heat) behind a sheet of cooking parchment does a nice job.

You've got to make sure your printer holds 147mm x 246mm ( 5.79 inches x 9.68 inches) size DVD/CD printing tray. brainstorm.com sells the blank inkjet cards and has a Photoshop template. You just print to an A4 paper size and select the CD/DVD tray and CD/DVD surface rather than paper. You don't need anything other than the Epson software and the Photoshop template.

You only get the plastic lamination pouches. You need to buy seperate blank cards from avery, etc. to make on your PC

No. You want the R200 tray: PVC ID Card Tray for the Epson R200 R210 and more

I use Paperport which came with the printer. It works great, and it is easy to use.

There is a list of all the printers that will work. Check and see if your printer is listed.

I have used 2 Epson Artisan 50 Printers & they work great on CD's or DVD's. I will probably purchase another Epson Artisan 50 when the one I have now stops working. It uses independent ink cartridges which are much less in cost. Thanks for your help

Contact Conde Systems...they have all kinds of transfer paper that work excellent with this printer!

Make sure you have the paper type properly set. I accidently set mine to card stock, deactivating duplex printing for that tray.

You can use any paper. There are 2 dif. trays. I use it for t-shirt transfers, invoices, templates, shipping labels. I use it with every kind & size of paper. HP actually has another model that has a 5th ink cartridge and is better suited to photographs.

If you are looking for paper with a blank "reverse" side I suggest you investigate "presentation paper" for the brand of printer you are using. The paper prints photos reasonably well (unless you are into tuning your computer/printer workflow and tweeking the paper profile, you probably won't notice a difference) and can be printed successfully on both sides. I have used it for brochures and photo books with satisfactory results for most purposes. I highly recommend matching the brand of paper to the printer and use the proper profile for the paper when printing. I think you will be pleased with the results. I have used both Epson and HP inkjet (and Xerox) with saatisfactury results.

Any HP "ePrint" printer should work well; see http://www.amazon.com/gp/richpub/syltguides/fullview/R1LYS0SP8EG0FL

You can easily google to find the right model. But I would not recommend EPS brand even though it is cheap because it leaves black marks on paper. After the experience, I bought Brother brand and it prints with no problem. I do not want to save money to ruin the printer. Just wanted to share my experience.

I have one, too. It accepts card stock fine, but the print quality thereon is abysmal. What settings do you use?Thanks!

Greetings - It's the extra paper tray. Likely not worth it...unless you have a glaring need to print different paper sizes and/or high volume.
