Maybe.
This budget printer is a bit "light weight" for the task. This just means the printer is not in the "Officejet" printer class - printing documents of this type on this printer might -- or might not -- work as expected.
The trick is to find a combination of settings that the printer will allow that also includes the necessary setup to feed the business card sheets through the printer.
For example, the printer supports "label" sheets up to .23 mil - a quick check does not show the weight of the business card paper as shown on the package. I would guess that the business card sheets are a bit heavier than standard labels. Does that matter? Maybe. Maybe not - setting to "Labels" is at least better than setting to "Plain paper".
The printer supports Index paper - but not Index paper at the standard "letter size" sheet. The printer does not apparently support the creation of custom paper size forms (and so you cannot create a letter size form for the Index Paper Media setup). You either need a label sheet the size of the supported media (Index cards) or you need to be able to create a custom sized form.
So, you can try it. Set the Paper Size / Type to "Labels" and see what happens.
Best Option: Have your business cards printed at a print shop. This is inexpensive and does not require that you buy a better printer for a job you may only do once in a while.
