how much would you be able to charge?
just do them on a desktop printer on pre-cut cards from pc world,
even then you will find it hard to sell them and make a profitPeter

I would say no…
I would also say you should be using your wide format printer AS a wide format printer. dont waste your time and energy on this sort of thing…

We have just printed 3000 Cards on 400micron Rigid PVC from Mcnaughtons Paper on a 970mm roll ( Material was about £90-00 for a 50m roll ) on a JVC 30-130 Mimaki and you couldn’t tell the difference between litho and our end product. The machine even die cut right thro the material with just a few holding points. If your machine is doing nothing else and the customer will accept higher pricethen go for it, especially as it is only 100-150 off he wants. If your machine can’t print and cut on a 100 -150 you could easily hand cut them and use a round cornering machine for finishing. My cost would be about £70-00 but with hand cutting another £30-00 – £40-00

With the trade prices we’re quoted for printing business cards, it’s not worth printing them yourself at all. Every Tom, Dick and Harry is doing them for nearly nothing
