Welcome to the HP Community.

 

The "Thicker paper" must be a supported Paper Size / Type and Weight as listed in the Printer Specifications.

 

Example Category Product Information > Topic Specifications

Product Specifications for the HP ENVY 6055 All-In-One Printer (5SE16A)

 

Media weight supported (metric)
A4: 60 to 90 g/m²; HP envelopes: 75 to 90 g/m²; HP cards: up to 200 g/m²; HP 10 x 15 cm photo paper: up to 300 g/m²

 

There is a bit to the "how-to" side.

Much depends on the printer model (and what it supports), the content type, whether the printer is aware of the paper size/type, the software or application you are using to view and submit the job, And the Settings used to configure the job.
