How does it do in printing envelopes of regular stock and heavy stock?

Although rated for 58 lbs paper(per the manual), I have fed through 65 lbs paper with no issues. Ironically, it does give you a choice for even heavier stock in the Print dialogue window for paper options. The only issue with heavier stock is that if you fill up the paper tray to the rim, it jams often. You can solve this issue by not going over the 70% capacity in the paper tray.

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.

Yes I have been successfully using 110 lb 199 g/m^2 card stock without issues. With the straight through printing setting (open the back) it will only have a small curl at the end of the page. I don't think the printer can handle card much thicker though.

I have used 110 lb cardstock with this printer and it prints fine with it. They recommend loading "special" paper from the back, but I've used it in the front-loading tray. As to the envelope question, there is a guide both in the front and rear. As to whether or not it's specific for envelopes, I don't know. I haven't printed envelopes yet. But the guides to adjust to accommodate envelope-sized items.

I use it regularly with 110# card stock and it will print on it. You might need to watch the feed. I've not had a jam but I have had more than one piece of paper try to run through at the same time. Overall, I'd say this is a very dependable and versatile printer.

I haven't printed envelopes specifically, but it has printed every non-standard (8.5 X 11) paper size I've fed it including: labels sheets, business cards, small name card labels, and more. I hope that helps!

We've used it for printing address labes on Avery paper it works great. Never used card stock, but there are settings for thicker paper and card stock. My only complaint is the toner. It's expensive, when printing flyers where the entire page is covered in toner, the knock off toner cartridges cause big problems. But with the Samsung toner it works great.

My husband and I recently purchased this printer. I used a very heavy bond card stock. At first I tried running it through the manual feed and it worked but not great since it is a 1 page manual feed. My husband suggested I try it in the regular paper tray and it worked great.

I tried mine on fairly thick stock and was pleased with the result. It shows up well on white paper, too -- I use it on card envelopes for a return address.

It's fantastic at printing envelopes, I have never owned a printer that did envelopes better. For best results, follow the instructions in the manual and use the manual feed tray. It hardly bends the envelope at all while printing it, which can be very helpful.

Hi, Regarding printing for envelopes works great has a special slot in the back of the printer for inserting envelopes. They print extremely fast especially in black and white.

It WILL print envelopes. They need to be manually fed through the slot behind the narrow rectangular door on the front of the printer.

I'm not at our home with that printer so while I think it does (where you print envelopes) I can't say for sure; however I print 3 part checks from the regular paper tray with no problem.

Yes. We print a lot of stuff on card stock with our's and it prints nicely. Also prints on photo paper very nicely too.

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 it prints greeting card stock beautifully. I use hallmark software and set the printer up according to the softwares instructions. Once you do this the software remembers and instructs you each time how to insert the card stock.

We have not used it for card stock yet so I can not tell you, sorry! So far we haven't had any issues, the scan function is a little slow and cumbersome but the printing is fine so far, colors are good.
