Good question. QR codes needs for example a printer and stickers too, if not printed directly on postcards. My new Epson printer, for example, does not support feeding of postcards or other thick materials, only standard paper and photo paper. Maybe we should ask ourselves why NFC tags were invented if QR-code would be sufficient.
