Back-to-Back Makes for No Bleeding
Blue ink bleeds from the back of our business cards to the front of the adjacent card when carried in a wallet.
Stack cards front-side to front-side.
Now blue ink bleeds to blue ink almost eliminating all bleeding on the fronts of cards.

But that only works with two business cards right? Wouldn’t a root cause solution be to find a different card design or different printer?

Sure the permanent fix is to change the ink specs. But we just spent a bundle of money on biz cards for 10 people. We only have the problem with those cards that are carried in our wallet.
The spirit of QnEK is to make small changes that can be made today.
