Thank you for joining HP Forums.
I'll be glad to help you 🙂
As I understand you want to print on 5 x 8 cards and need assistance with the same,
No worries, as I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution:
Did you check if the printer supports such dimensions? Click here to confirm.
Which software are you using to print?
While you respond to that, here's what you need to know:
According to the specifications, the Card type in Card size supported:
3 x 5 in Index76.2 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in)
4 x 6 in Index101.6 x 152 mm (4 x 6 in)
5 x 8 in Index127 x 203.2 mm (5 x 8 in)
You may want to try setting up a custom paper size in Windows to print to your desired card size, as long as the weight of your media doesn't exceed 16 lbs.
To view steps on how to do this please select the following link: Creating a custom page size.
