Colin:

The card stock that I get comes in sheets that contain 3 cards.  So, what we
do is print them off in groups of 3.

It seems to work, although I do have my sighted XYL's assistance to be sure
the cards are printing correctly and to be sure we're not wasting the card
stock with bad printings.
