[Logic] what's a good printer for printing directly on qsl's?

[Dave Edwards]

Art....
I tried that flimsy paper QSL card stock, but could not bring myself to
sending that stuff out.
I have regular QSL cards.
My HP 970Cse prints on them, but because of the semi-gloss on the back of
the card, the ink
smears.
My HP 6P laser printer feeds and prints flawlessly. I use the rear outlet,
so the cards do not have to make an unnecessary trip around the rollers to
come out the front....which would probably result in a disaster!!
When I had the cards done, I had them leave out the blank report form. In
that section, I print all the contact information and QSL  pse or tnx.
Regards....Dave
