[fhecxhmh] Printing cards

Can regular people print on stiff card stock?  The issue is that most consumer-grade printing equipment has rollers, so relying on the material to bend, but stiff card stock does not bend well.

One workaround is to print on thin paper and glue it to stiff card stock.

Stiff card stock is desirable because it is (or seems) much more durable than regular paper.

Original motivation was to print a custom post card: the postal service has regulations on the minimum thickness the card must be, probably so that it is stiff enough not sag or bend in sorting equipment.
