Can anyone help explain how (or IF) I can  print on heavy cardstock - for example 80 lb or 110 lb cardstock or 140 lb watercolor cardstock? I have tried but can only get 65 lb thru it and even that is hit or miss. Is there a "manual feed" that would help me to do this? It's not in the user manual that I can find. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That printer model doesn't support printing on cardstock, that's why there is nothing in the user manual.

105 gsm is maximum for plain paper recommended.

Do you know if I can do a "manual feed" on my OfficeJet Pro 8710? If I could perhaps I could manually feed heavy-weight cardstock thru this printer.

Thanks so much!

There is no manual feed on that printer model.
