Hi!
I am looking for a new printer, but I am going round in circles trying to find one that will cope with what I need it to do.

I am looking for a home printer, that will print card - birthday card/business card weight approximately. With managing to print colour on these without the streaky lines/jamming or giving up the print job half way through.

The reason I need a printer to do this is that I would ideally like to print my own Jewellery backing cards for bracelets etc.

Thank you for your help.

I have a HP LaserJet Pro M254dw which is a colour laser, and has been excellent with windows, Macs, and iOS.

There are newer models of it, but you can still find it online

I use genuine cartridges, but cheaper 3rd party ones can also be used.

The Epson Eco-Tank range is supposed to have very good colour, and some of the models print cards. They're not cheap, though.

Have a look at some of the tech review websites.
