Can you load from the back, for cardstock/thick 11x17 paper?

Basic User Guide chapter 2 is helpful with sizes and paper types. Ledger size 11 by 17 should be loaded manually but I cannot find information on type and thickness. To safeguard your printer I suggest a contact with Brother which may suggest a Brother special paper for best quality for your project. Rosemary

I don't think so. I just found an excellent card stock through Red River Paper - 96 lb. Pecos Gloss Magna. I ordered the 7x10 paper that folds to 7x5. I haven't printed on it yet,but it's the most substantial stock I've found to date. You'll have to google up Red River & order through them. I'm pretty sure they're not on Amazon.

There is a slider bar that will allow you to staple up to 12" away from the edge of the paper, so you should be good to go with your application.

I honestly haven't tried out the automatic duplex feature, but it does handle 11x17 paper.

It should be ok for use with card stock, but as is the case with any thicker paper, it is just naturally more opaque.

No, that paper would be too large. It can handle 12" front to back but the side to side dimension is about 9-1/2" to 9-3/4" max. The drawer is about 2-3/4" deep, probably 2-1/2" to fill it would be safer.

It depends on what you mean by 'use'. It's a straight path from the Manual feed on the left, to the output tray. However, with very heavy stock, this means you can put maybe 8 to 10 sheets in at a time, which I found too time consuming. I was able to put B006P1EQXA and B00006IDRW through the main tray, and duplex. Index Cardstock, 110 lb and Premium Cardstock, 96 Brightness, 65 lb. The second is actually heavier - you start to go the path of Index weight vs Card weight. The packages had the G/SM on them but I forget exactly http://www.paper-paper.com/weight.html

Yes. just figure out which direction to load the paper. If it's upside down it won't mark through.

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.

I am sorry, but none of my clients have used that heavy paper in this printer. According to the online specs, the paper tray can only handle up to 28 lb stock.

It's not card stock thick. But not super thin. Somewhere in the middle. Very pretty prints but if you want the card to be more sturdy this would not be thick enough.

Not sure what you are asking. You can load paper from the paper tray of put it in a single feed slot on the side. The document feeder on top will adjust to whatever size paper you put in it. Does this help?

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.

Yes, the trays can easily be configured to handle 11x17 paper, there are tabs inside the trays that you pinch/move to the appropriate paper sizes as shown in the tray. These is also a dial that you move in the tray to indicate to the printer what size of paper is loaded. This will also show on the tray front the type of paper loaded.

It has several envelope sizes listed..I do not use this printer for that... The thing is-- it has only one tray. so, you can not stock envelopes in one tray and paper in another. As far as paper thickness.. it lists card stock as an option.. I have not tried that.. If you want me too, I can stop and do that.

There is a manual load and one tray, you can load the paper you like but you may need to change the printer configuration for card stock. Going to the printer IP number using a browser.

Yes. You put the cardstock into the back tray, and then tell the print program the type of paper is cardstock.
