The Epson Artisan 50 looks to be a worthy printer for printing your custom photo note and greeting cards on Red River greeting card papers.
With six colors and a rear feed tray, the Artisan 50 should be a dandy choice for any of Red River’s glossy, matte, specialty, or fine art card stocks.
A new Artisan 50 is on the way to RRP HQ today. We’ll have a full review of this new machine shortly.

60lb. Premium Gloss is a cast coated inkjet paper. This paper has the same coating as the long time best seller, 53lb. Premium Gloss. The new paper features a heavier and thicker base stock.
Cast coated paper is the “traditional” inkjet gloss that feels more like a sheet of paper than a photo. One of our most popular papers, this card-weight, blue white sheet features a mirror smooth reflective printing surface. Premium comes in a variety of sheet sizes and offers high quality reproduction.
If you’re a fan of glossy paper for photo note cards (and have a dye ink inkjet printer) then you should consider a box.
Have a pigment inkjet printer? Never fear! Our new pigment friendly glossy greeting card will be here in early June.

Red River invented the inkjet paper sampler kit. Since 1997 we have been encouraging customers to buy samples, print their images, and make the most informed buying decision.
You can add value to your sample kit by making prints on each paper and then creating your own Inkjet Paper Buying Guide.
Simply put a montage of images on each different Red River paper, assemble a book of the prints, and use them when choosing paper for future projects.
