Hey, that's cool and perfectly understandable. I'll always be working on streamlining the process, so things *will* improve.
And, as of now, heres where it stands. Been in contact with HP about how slow it is and the "jams", this printer is graded for HP's own cardstock grade, not standard 110 lb cover/card stock. Shouldn't really be surprised I suppose. The manual feed works, I'll have to time this.
Game plan, for now, is I'll send out the samples for those who have requested them, with some extra care they're coming through the manual feed and manual cutter quite nicely. March & April I'm going to get my product ready for Final Twilight, which will let me test the hell out of the whole process, and hopefully by May I'll have a faster process. Once I find & hit a rhythmn, I'll be better off.

For those curious, it looks like HP card stock (by which they seem to mean "greeting card stock") is about 60#.

Which stinks :P The manual feed will take the 110 lb just fine, so I'll see what I can mill through with that. Setting it to the 200 g/m "Premium Cover Stock" and using the manual feed seems to work quite nicely now, ran off a good number of pages earlier, about 36 (front & back) in a half hour fiddling with the settings & such. That's about 6 decks, with everything going on between playing and printing. Later tonight or tomorrow I'll sit down, prep all of my files and save the settings from earlier, and just see what I get done in an hour or two. Should be educational.
