The most common printer
Print photocards on an inkjet printer
Steps
Design your card in mallow
Pick photocard, instax mini or square and decorate it.
Choose “Home inkjet”
In Print, choose your printer type, the paper and the material you loaded.
Print it at 100 % with AirPrint
Print from mallow with AirPrint. The PDF is drawn 1:1, without “fit to page”. In the print dialog, pick the right paper type and Photo quality. Don’t use “borderless”: it enlarges the image and crops your cards.
Cut and protect it
Cut along the marks, round the corners and slide it into a sleeve.
