But to compare ink from the previously mentioned printers with a laser like the xerox c9000, $ 0.82 does not seem so way off. I haven't tried their quality to see how they compare.
Alternatively, I just found out that some presses can go up to 400 gsm, but do not know if it is economical to run...
Thanks for replying
Is it common practice to use this category of printers for this purpose? I am asking because the print cost for 8x10 inch prints for the Pro 9500 is $0.82. Of course the ink cost will vary widely for cards because some are not full coverage.

Thanks for giving me the numbers. I saw warranties on some cheaper (around 250$) Epson ink tanks to be 30,000 pages, and the more expensive (around 600$) have 50,000 pages. Another printer, the L805 or L850, if I remember right, did not have the warranty in pages, but in photos (I do not know...

Do you know some of the suppliers? I work in a shop that has a laser, Konica Minolta c368, which has a maximum weight of 300 gsm. Can it not print on the card type you described? And about photo card stocks, since it is photo type, my guess is that it is best to be printed on using an inkjet, Am...
