Print E-Shram Cards on A4 (Batch Print 5 Cards): Profit Guide

E-Shram cards are in high demand. Every laborer needs a durable PVC card. But for a shop owner (CSC/E-Mitra), the Cost of Printing is the biggest enemy.

The Problem: An A4 PVC Sheet (Dragon Sheet) costs ₹15-20. If you print one card on it, your cost is ₹25 (Sheet + Ink). If you sell it for ₹30, you make only ₹5 profit.

The Solution: Print 5 cards on one A4 sheet. Your cost divides by 5. Your profit skyrockets. Cost per card drops to ₹5 only.

💰 300% More Profit

Single Print Profit: ₹5 per card.
Batch Print Profit: ₹25 per card.
Don't work hard, work smart.

Pro Tips for E-Mitra Operators

  • Mirror Image: If using Dragon Sheets, ALWAYS print in Mirror Mode. The heat transfer flips the image back to normal.
  • Cutting: Use a Die Cutter for professional rounded corners. Hand-cut cards look cheap and hurt the customer's wallet.
  • Brighten: E-Shram cards are often dark. Enhance brightness by 10% before printing for better visibility on PVC.

FAQ: PVC Printing

Q: Can I use this for Ayushman or Aadhar too? A: Yes! The ID Card Maker works for any card - E-Shram, Ayushman, PAN, or Aadhar.

Q: My converting tool is not working? A: If the PDF is password protected, unlock it first. Or use our PDF to JPG Converter specifically for government docs.

Q: Which printer is best? A: Epson L805 (6-color) is the gold standard for ID cards. For budget, Epson L3210/L3250 works fine but colors might be slightly dull.
