Cardstock is typically clay coated and difficult to print well with solvent/ecosolvent ink, typically the ink will 'bleed" out and image resolution will suffer.  We suggest that you try printing a sample before commiting to a job.   Remember max recommended thickness is 0.020" and max capacity is 0.039" to avoid head strikes and head damage.

Printing on "indoor" media usually means printing on coated media, some coating are receptive to eco inks, some are not, again printing a sample will tell you if image quality is sufficient.
