AVERYPrintable Postcards, 4.25" x 5.5", White, 200 Blank Postcards for Laser Printers (5689)

This is my 2nd time buying these postcards. I love them! The Avery program is easy to use. Postcards are easy to design and easy to print. I’m using them as thank you cards for my baby shower. Postcard stamps are cheaper than regular stamps.

I have an inkjet printer and ordered these by mistake, so I do not know how well the print out. They were well packaged, and the cards themselves are very sturdy and appear well made. I exchanged them for the inkjet version which prints out beautifully.

This product is not just for writing postcards. I've used it in party planning for several things. I've made games for baby showers, scratch offs to win prizes at a girls happy hour, to share a recipe at a dinner party,as a punch card incentive for my students and grandchildren as an incentive. The list is endless and Avery's design program makes it easy to design and print from your home computer.

THESE ARE GENUINE AVERY PRODUCTS

These are a great quick fix postcard template. Paper stock is nice and easily runs through our laser printer. Does absorb a lot of ink, so images look a little dull.

Purchased these because I already had graduation invitations purchased but unfortunately, due to Covid-19, the regular graduation ceremony was cancelled. We still wanted to send out the photo invitations so friends and family could have the keepsake with our daughter senior picture. I used these postcards to print let people know about the change of plans. I was very pleased with this purchase.

This was exactly as I expected a matted finished postcard that was easy to separate, took postcard postage and traveled well in the mail. I was also using an HP Officejet Pro 8600 inject printer and the print quality was no different than the Avery 8387 which I also used (I have not tried these with photos). The one item I failed to do which cost me a few sheets was to set the paper to card stock when I printed. Using a normal paper setting about 1 out of 20 pages loaded in a way so that the printing overlapped the perforations. Also using the normal paper setting, the loader often did not pick up card and I had to keep hitting the try again button. Choosing card stock fixed both these items but for some reason it also slowed down the printer speed. I don't see any noticeable difference in print quality between the fast regular paper setting and the slower card stock setting.

It does the job nicely of giving you 4 postcards from an 8.5 x 11 size sheet. Once printed, they come apart very easily with the fine perforations on the sheets. Heavier paper, but no problem getting it through my Brothers HL-2140 laser printer.

I loved using these! Such great quality and perfect for use for my baby shower games to print on.
