Does it do cardstock duplex well? Anyone have experience as to whether it jams a lot when doing this?

Anyone tried running laser label stock through this printer? I need one that will do that efficiently. Mary Dierbeck

yes, it does duplex and gives you time to add more pages. You can save as a PDF or jpg file. I really works efficiently and does awesome scans. I would definitely recommend this product.

It does not do Automatic duplexing. You would need to print out the front pages, then flip the paper manually over to print on the back. If you select double sided printing with the HP software installed, the printer will assist with this process.

It jams sometimes, but it doesn't damage cards. It seems to be jamming more often lately. Any suggestions on how to prevent jamming?

I honestly haven't tried out the automatic duplex feature, but it does handle 11x17 paper.

Yes, I have mine set up for auto duplex. Even when I print from my phone it prints on both sides.

The Pro205 and other "top-loading" Lexmark printers will print on heavy stock just fine. But duplexing card stock is not supported. (make sure the Eco-mode is not set to automatic duplex). The reason some products have trouble with heavy card stock is because it is trying to pull paper around a very tight curve in the paper path.(I work for Lexmark, but my comments are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of Lexmark International, Inc.)

It's worked well when I've used it with cover stock or photo paper. I'm about to try a project with card stock and will report back.

Yes, I use my laser printer for these cards and I'm able to print on both sides, but it depends on the printer. One of my printers does not have a problem with duplex, my other one does

Thanks for this info - that definitely shows that the MF4150 has some awareness for the need to do duplex copying.My next question would be: Can the software that comes with the scanner allow you to scan one side of 30 pages, then scan the other side of the same 30 pages, then the software will generate a PDF that orders the pages correctly?

I've not been successful with card stock - even with 60 pound paper. It's great with 24 pound paper and envelopes but when I tried the card stock it just kept hanging up. Hope this is helpful to you.

I got two of these and they both jammed. It does count mixed bills when its working though.

I feed card stock and other special items such as fabric (yes it will print on fabric, that is backed with freezer paper) one at a time, and I have had no problem. I really like this printer alot.

It does have an occasional jam but does no damage to your cards. I am happy with the one I have.

I have not had that problem with this printer. I have only had one paper jam and I use this printer weekly and my step daughter uses it as well.

Haven't tested it with "all" the brands available but so far it's worked very well with all the cards I use (mostly Sandisc)I'd also recommend the dock that holds 4 of the readers - being able to download 4 cards at once is a real time saver for me. If you were to have any problems it would probably be with older, non-brand name CF cards which weren't always made to spec.
