Printing the Periodic Table Wallet Cards on photo paper at the highest quality gives much better results, as the above images illustrate.  For most wallet cards, edge bleed isn’t a big issue, but for the tiny print of the Periodic Table Wallet Card, you may want to go to the trouble of printing on photo paper at the highest quality your printer can handle. 

The main drawbacks of printing on photo paper are that you have to cut the cards out yourself—not that big of a drawback really—and you lose the option of printing on the back of the card, which may or may not be a big deal to you.  If you laminate your card, however, you can put 2 of the wallet cards back-to-back to get a double-sided card, either an all chemistry card or a chemistry-math card, e.g. a Prime Number Wallet Card (see the single orange 1—2499 card) on the back of a Periodic Table Wallet Card.
