    Hey everyone. I am not technically inclined, so please excuse the non professional explanation of what I need.

    The user will go to a page on the site that will have some templates of a PRE-created business card. If they are PAID members, the user will have the same option to print at home, but they will have a button on the page, that will automatically send the Pre-created template to a printing company. This printing company will already have their name, address, etc from this users billing info already entered into the site at a earlier date, and they will print the cards, ship them to the user, and bill me.

    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Billing info already on stuff is a bit vexing but you can make a business card site with magento and this http://www.zetaprints.com/category/magento-web-to-print

    There are a few other ways to go about this but I don't entirely follow the business model here.

    Do you print things yourself if you don't send folks a template? This poses a few issues because there is no color control and folks are left to their own devices in terms of the media to print it on etc.

    Some thoughts on that http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=65268

    At any rate, if you can be a bit more specific, I can likely be as well.

    Nigel

    I agree with Nigel, More details would be helpful to give a full response. However I do think it's rather hard to start up a business card business online as vistaprint.com has kindof take over the market for that.
