Can I feed 110# card stock thru the printer?

I've not been successful with card stock - even with 60 pound paper. It's great with 24 pound paper and envelopes but when I tried the card stock it just kept hanging up. Hope this is helpful to you.

Joan, so I got this email from Amazon asking if I could answer your question. I'm just another user like you and all I can say is that I'm using it with 65 lb paper and it works fine. I didn't know that they set a 110 lb limit on it and I'll probably not have occasion to use that heavy of card stock. Are you trying to print 2 sided printing? If so, you may try just printing single side, then refeeding. That's pretty heavy stock. Good luck.

Yes it will. I use 60# card stock on a regular basis. There is a straight pass through by opening two doors in the printer, one in front for infeed and one in back for outfeed.

The Pro205 and other "top-loading" Lexmark printers will print on heavy stock just fine. But duplexing card stock is not supported. (make sure the Eco-mode is not set to automatic duplex). The reason some products have trouble with heavy card stock is because it is trying to pull paper around a very tight curve in the paper path. (I work for Lexmark, but my comments are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of Lexmark International, Inc.)

Yes, I print on 11x17 80lb Cover Stock (which is slightly heavier than 110 card stock)

I've used it to print on 110lb card stock, with varying results. A lot of it depends on the program you're printing from. I've had good success using photoshop managed color profiles and printing to the card stock.

I'm sorry I can't give you an answer since I haven't tried using card stock myself. Maybe Best Buy or some other store could let you test it out.

I have never used card stock (yet)...but I have owned Canon Printers for YEARS-- and I could count ALL the paper-jams on one hand, and not use all the fingers... Others have said they printed card-stock just fine.

I seldom print on greeting card stock - when I do I use the other printer in my office, an Epson Artisan 837 dye ink printer. I will feed a few sheets at a time.

Yes; the specification page on Dell's website [ http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?baynote_bnrank=0&baynote;_irrank=0&c;=us&cs;=19&l;=en&s;=dhs&sku;=225-4112&~ck=baynoteSearch ] indicates "thick" and "Cover" paper types. I've used the manual tray to print postcards, business cards, and envelopes without issue; I wasn't printing huge batches, so your mileage may vary. As long as you stick to card stock for laser printers, you should be good.

First, not all 110# card stock is made alike. You need to make sure to use long grain, and the flexibility should be pretty high.Second, you may have to manually feed it. The sharp curve on pickup is likely to jam from the tray because of the physics.Third, you may have to post-fuse the toner. A clothes iron on "wool" (highest heat) behind a sheet of cooking parchment does a nice job.

No answer, just want to concur. The printer claims it can handle cardstock by offering a paper setting in its printer manager software for cardstock but it always jams when trying to feed it from the tray.

You're the second person I've tried to help with this issue. According to Brother it will not handle card stock. 30 lb paper is probably its limit. Other than that, this is an excellent, reliable, fast, easy to maintain, with lower cartridge costs than its competitors.

I defer to the previous answer. I agree that the feed path won't handle card stock. I've operated ofset presses which will handle card stock. Their feed function loads flat and feeds flat to and out of the impression cylinder group. My 8600 handles standard mailing envelopes flawlessly. I wouldn't try anything more complex than that. Just remember, its' feed path. The stock has to bend 180 degrees.

Yes, but you must feed card stock one sheet at a time manually using the single sheet/envelope feeder.

To print on card stock, open HP OfficeJet program on your desktop, select "set preferences" and select cardstock under paper type menu. Mine works just fine.

Cool thanks for the info. I will go with this printer while there is such a great sale going on. I needed to know that card stock worked OK and that I could stack it in.
