I haven't tried it as I've always used regular print paper cut for this or a similar printer. However if the surface were fairly smooth and the weight of the paper similar to the recommended paper, I don't see why you couldn't try it and find out. Good luck!

No. This was one of the disappointments as it makes printing to card stock impractical.

I don't use card stock for the card itself. I use pre folded blank cards (with the envelopes) then cut a piece of cardstock slightly smaller in size than the front of the card - pass it thru the design of your choice thru the cuttlebug THEN glue it to the card stock front of your choice. You may even have two plain colors of card stock (one smaller than the other) and for the third and top piece (cut smaller than the second sheet) run that one thru the cuttlebug for your designs.

Great printer EXCEPT for the issue with card stock. I've tried 32lb stock and still no luck

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, it prints card stock quite well. You have to load it in the top tray and will have to flip it manually if you are printing on both sides.

Hi Jill. I've used the printer to print thicker stock than regular paper and it struggled a little. Couple jams or incorrect feeds before I got what I wanted. It's a good printer. But I'm not sure how pictures would do. Hoped this helped.

We had trouble with card stock. It will not take anything thicker than copier paper. Unless there is a setting we have not found that will change that.

This will help. Use regular pinter paper on the bottom half of your stack then put your card stock on top of the regular paper and you will be on your way to printing. this works great. Just remember to keep track so you don't waste paper and ink printing the the paper you don't want your stuff printed on.

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 wouldn't recommend it. I used it on card stock and was very disappointed. You can it, but it isn't nearly as nice as on a regular paper.

I have NOT tried to print on card stock, the matte photo looks to be about the same thickness, so I cautiously believe card stock will work.

I have not done card stocks but it did do a nice job on envelopes. I would reccomend this printer highly no problems so far.

Yes! I've used multiple types of card stock and it prints great! The cardstock is a little curved after being printed on but otherwise it's perfect.

I went on-line to chat on this topic with Lexmark support. They explicity say they can't duplex copy on card stock, but in reality, they can't print either in duplex. It's not stated anywhere in the literature. If you are trying to create greeting cards or anything of that nature, this is a wreck. Very bad.

Basically.. NO. There is no rear paper feed therefore the paper has to make a very sharp 180 within the printer. Card stock is too stiff.

I'm sorry, I don't have any experience with card stock in this printer....I know you can find the manual online at the Brother USA website, it may have the answer you want.
