Any ideas? The cards are twin fold. It's not so much a question of which laser printer will do the job. It's more a question of whether the card stock you're using is compatible with laser printers. Most any printer -- laser or ink jet -- will accept card stock. But some stock is better suited for ink jet, and some is better suited for laser printing. From my experience with card stock (and I'll admit, it's somewhat limited -- I don't do that much printing on card stock), I have found that generally speaking, card stock that is "shiny" (glossy) isn't well-suited for laser printing. If your scorecards are dull (non-glossy) stock, you ought to be able to print on them with most any printer, ink jet or laser. Because of the irregular size, you may have to hand-feed them, but most any laser printer will have a hand-feed slot you can stand there and babysit as the print project runs. Also, I would echo what John Pflum said elsewhere in this thread about HP printers. I recently retired an older color and b&w HP laser, replacing them with newer models. I've been real happy with all of them. Randy

What about doing a good scan say in landscape and then see if you can line up the print fields to match the paper/layout.... If that works then make copies of the blank scan and print away.

We do a lot of printing on card stock at work and our 5+ year old HP works just fine. It will even duplex so you can print on both sides without reloading the paper. -- jvdp RSG Cincinnati July 13-15, 2007 http://www.rsgcincinnati.com
