Can I ask a rather elementary question? Are you *mailing* the postcard prints (so they have writing and a stamp on the back), or putting them in envelopes and sending them? I've been concentrating for some time on photographing things I want to put on my website, so I have skipped rather on the print thing. But I've found that my HP printer produces quite reasonable looking postcard prints - the paper is a bit flimsy, but has the standard Japanese "Postcard" stuff on the back, and I've mailed a couple successfully. I asked the other day about having prints made at postcard size: the ordinary (Fuji Frontier?) prints are 30 yen (probably no more than it costs me in paper and *ink*), but the standard photographic paper isn't merely thin, it's also hard to write on. Having Postcard postcards printed costs many times more (well, about 200 yen each, if you have 10 >from one negative!)
