Hello, thank you for your question. The HP 5000 Smart Tank is capable of printing on the following g/m² weights: Plain paper: 60 to 90 g/m²; Envelopes: 75 to 90 g/m²; Cards: up to 200 g/m²; Photo paper: up to 300 g/m². This model does not meet the requirements for cardstock going up to 300 g/m². Additionally, the ink for the Smart Tanks is a blend of dye-based (color) and pigment-based (black) inks, which the dye-based inks are not waterproof.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can, my wife is an artist and uses this printer for her instructional classes. She said 300 gsm is plenty thick enough for the job.
