Best printer for greeting cards.

Hi,
I am looking for a printer that would be good for printing greeting cards. It wouldn't be a huge amount, but I have no real idea what I'm looking for.
I was looking at the Canon Pixma 4700, as they use individual ink and are capable of borderless printing, but I'm sure this isn't the best option.
I'd be grateful for any advice.
Thanks,
Cheryl

WRONG
You need a printer that loads the paper from the top, if you buy a printer that loads from the front by the time the roller has taken the card round the roller you then have twice as much if you feed 260gsm card into the machine when it goes round the roller you have 520gsm that is one thick piece of card and front loading machine will not cope as easy as a top loader.
