Question

Can 4OVER4 print on both sides of cardstock?

Answer

Yes. 4OVER4 prints in full color on both the front and back of cardstock, also called duplex printing, which in print shorthand is written as 4/4 (four CMYK ink colors on each side). This is available across many cardstock types and weights, and across products from cards and postcards to flyers and brochures.

NotationMeaning
4/4Full color on both the front and the back
4/1Full color front, single color back
4/0Full color front, blank back
  • Choose 4/4 (front-and-back rather than front-only in the product options) when you want artwork or information on both sides.
  • Choose 4/0 to save on a piece that only needs one printed side.
  • On lighter text stocks, keep heavy dark coverage in mind so ink does not show through; heavier stocks avoid this.
