I am trying to print on 90 lb cardstock.  The printer is feeding the cardstock in late so that I only get half of the page printed on the top half of my paper.  I have tried both trays.  I have tried with many sheets of cardstock in the tray and only one piece of cardstock in the tray.

 

I set the printer set up to Paper - thick, 8.5" x 11".  Now the printer will not allow me to set Tray 2 to Paper - thick.  I get a Selection conflict encountered error and I have to reset the paper to regular paper or else it won't print at all.  Please tell me how to set this printer so that it will print cardstock.  It is supposed to be able to print up to 110 lb.  I am very frustrated!  Thank you.

You can't print on a 90lbs cardstock it's not supported.

110lb card supported is not the same as cardstock those are way different papers.

You can print on plain paper up to 28 lb, everything above that will misprint or jam.

 

Media weight supported (U.S. standard)
16 to 28 lb (plain paper); 60 to 75 lb (photo); 20 to 24 lb (envelope); 90 to 110 lb (card)

What is 110 (card)?  When I google it , I get 110 lb cardstock.

 

I need a suggestion for a printer that will print on 90 lb cardstock.  Thank you!

110lb cards are small cards like for birthday cards printing, cardstock is thick paper. You will hardly find an affordable printer that can print on a 90 lb cardstock.
