just wondering does the office jet pro 7720 print on 160gsm paper? Or does anyone know the maximum gsm?
regards,

Short Answer
Yes, the printer supports 160 gsm paper.
The Longer Answer
Different Media (kind of paper) are supported at different weight categories.
Although the printer Specifications are a bit vague about what this means, there are some typical assumptions that MIGHT be made.
For example, possible settings / categories for your printer might include:
- Card Stock, if supported, might be within the weight category 163 to 200 gsm
- Plain paper, might be within the weight category 60 to 105 gsm
- HP Matte Brochure at 180 gsm
- HP Presentation Paper at 120 gsm
- HP Advanced Photo Paper to 250 gsm
- Envelopes (not embossed, not lined, not odd colors) 75 to 90 gsm
