I have been using a normal printer from Wal-Mart I bought a few years back and it works well with cardstock I bought a bit back but that's too thin for what I need currently I run into a problem trying to print anything much thicker. It jams or won't feed at all. I had some limited success by opening the back and forcing the thicker sheet through (the printer feeds front in a U shape and back out like most)
Are there printers that feed thicker poster board or feed paper in a flat motion rather than the U bend
I'm working on a piece that gets a lot of wear in one area specifically so thick stock is needed or I'll have to double up on it which won't look right

I'm planning to get a cutplotter for xmas. The models I've been looking at feed in a straight line through the device, so they should handle cardstock just fine.

You'll believe what I tell you<
I know it's late op, but the other common format for printers follows a _/ format with paper in the top and out the front. As they don't have to roll paper in half, they work with more types of paper.
