Postcard printers produce text and images on postcards and other novelty papers. They are usually designed for large-volume printing and are capable of full color prints. Most models can also print mailing forms or labels, making them popular for mass-mailing flyers and brochures.
Types of Postcard Printers
Kinds of Postcard Printers include the following:
Inkjet postcard printers
Inkjet postcard printers have cartridges that spray fine droplets of liquid ink onto the paper.
They are cheaper than laser printers, but usually have lower resolutions and print speeds.
Laser postcard printers
Laser postcard printers use laser beams to burn images onto the paper, and laser toners to control color and intensity.
They print faster and produce better detail than inkjets.
Choosing Postcard Printers (Buying tips)
Resolution: Choose a postcard printer with a resolution of at least 300 dpi. Look for one with variable resolutions so that you can switch to lower resolutions for printing address labels. Print rate: Choose a high-speed and fully automated postcard printer for mass printing. Look for features like automatic collation and jam recovery to ensure uniform prints.
