Does anyone know the heaviest paper or cardstock that the HP MFP M277dw Laserjet Printer can use.  I find varying or incomplete or conflicting information on HP sites and elsewhere.  In one post, an HP tech stated that it cannot print 80 lb cardstock in 8-1/2 x 11 sheets and then went on to recommend that same size to someone for the same printer.  I have tried 65 and 80 lb cardstock and I am lucky to get 1 out of 10 sheets to print without jamming.  I selected this printer becasue it is used by scrapbook and card-making enthusiasts.  Does anyone know if or how 80 lb cardstock can be used on this printer?

According to the datasheet for the Laserjet Pro MFP M277 series printers, the maximum paper weight is 220 gsm (for glossy paper):

I'll leave you to do the conversion from the gsm (grams per square metre) units to the lb units used in America, or to find the equivalent US version of the datasheet.
