  I have done this.  Not sure if this is the best way but here is what I did.

I made a custom label the size of the card  with nr across 1 nr down 1 Paper
size Custom then adjusted the left and top spacing to put the printing where
I wanted it.  It actually worked quite well with an ink jet, BUT.

A couple of thoughts on consumer grade printers.  Ink jet printing is
hopeless if it gets wet and I have had people request a replacement card
because the postie dropped the letter in a puddle or something.  Laser
printers don't print very well on heavy card just not enough heat to fuse
the toner properly, yes some have a setting for heavier paper.  I'll let
others decide if their laser fuses the toner good enough but I have gone
back to labels and a laser printer.

I was hoping to print directly on the back of my pre printed QSL cards...
This is my third call. I have three different cards (and styles). I can do
labels for the other other two. My current printer is a Brother HL-5250. I
also have a HP OfficeJet Pro 8610, but that has not as easy to setup (as I
can tell).

Will, Is this preprinted cards and you want to go in a blank spot
instead of sticking on a label (that is what I do)?  What printer do you
expect to use?
This will all help for replies since everyone is in a different
situation and lots of customizing needed.  Dan KI6X

I was looking at testing printing directly to QSL cards. I am using
typical QSL card stock that is 3.5x5.5. Can someone tell me how to get
DX4WIN to print directly on the cards??
