Can this printer handle card stock?

Yes, but don't buy this printer. It's a nice hardware but they have the most terrible software package and user interface even a senior level 3 engineer could not figure it out the problems. Lexmark International tool back the printer and refund all my money. Buy a Brother MFC-L series easy to install and communicate without any problems. http://www.brother-usa.com/MFC/Color_Laser_Multifunction/#.VE7ma1t0xD8

I don't know for sure because I returned the printer because it could not print front and back - two sided.

This printer's inability to handle card stock is a known issue to HP. Their forums are full of 8620 owners that can't print card stock or photo paper. I have tried the software solutions suggested here and on the forums without success; the printer always gives me a "Paper Empty" error. My opinion, they used cheap material for the paper rollers and they aren't as sticky as they ought to be.One thing that may work is to clean the pick roller, which is the roller that grabs the paper off the stack. It's underneath the printer, and you'll have to turn the printer on its side to clean it.But really, all that should be unnecessary; HP just blew it this time.

Hi Lovelylady,Thank you for your inquiry!Manufacturer states that they can use card stock as long as the paper is no thicker than 11 mils. Some of the papers in our catalog will state the mil thickness.BisonOffice

I have one, too. It accepts card stock fine, but the print quality thereon is abysmal. What settings do you use?Thanks!

I had trouble with heavy stock paper. The rollers jam the paper. So, I would expect that heavy card stock might. But, if you're referring to invitation or christmas card stock paper, it will work, but you can't do a very long run. Better to print in batches. Hope this helps.

I've run card stock just fine. Just know that this is not a "production" machine. It doesn't scan any faster than my HP All-In-One

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

The printer is NOT capable of printing on card stock or even quality photo paper. It simply can not feed the heavier paper due to the sharp radius turns in the paper path. Other than that, I love the printer and have used it for 3 years with no problems.

I never printed on card stock but the printer only lasted for about 200 sheets and then broke down. I have over $400 invested with toner for nothing more than an over-sized electronic paperweight.

An inkjet prints just fine with this card stock. We print catalog pages with it

I print 110 card stock all the time on this printer. The settings have to be right. Never a paper jam but it does put a little crimp on the top of the paper. I do not get that crimp with a lighter weight card stock (80).

I haven't tried card stock yet, but I have printed photos on Epson photo paper in a variety of stock sizes without problems and good results. I loaded the cut sheets right into the tray and it fed in without a hitch.

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.

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

I'm not sure about card stock. I do have direct experience with some majors issues with this model printer. We installed these for a few at least 8 clients. With in 6 months of installing we've had a 50% failure rate. This printer has some serious design flaws that Epson is aware of, bit they are still selling it. Don't by this model.

It works ok with 110 card stock. The printer is a bit loud as the paper travels over the rollers. Ive printed about 20 pages with success. No jams or errors.

I don't know. I have an ink jet printer. I do know that you have to change the print settings as the card stock is thicker than normal paper. Sorry that. I could not help.
