Hey dear,
it's a difference between printing on normal copy paper at home or printign with a manufacturer.
At home most time you have only the 80g/m or materials up to 120 or 200 g/m. You have a laser printer or ink jet printer, both with inks based on water and / or mineral oil, so printed images or letters often bleed out.
Maybe you could take a look at overnightprints.co.uk/postcards. Postcards from online printers (if you choose an environmentally friendly printer) could have printing process without water and inks based on natural oil. These allows sharper image quality and higher colour brillance. It's a large difference between professional and self made print, so i would always choose the professionals if I wanna have a great and respectable result.
