Epson Artisan 50 printer?

[Dick Sanders]

Can the Epson Artisan 50 inkjet printer take thick papers, such as 240, 285, and 300 gm weight?

I have an Epson R2400 for serious work, but it can be fussy with heavyweight textured papers. I also have an old Epson 960 that works great with the thicker textured papers, but it's so old it's giving me a lot of problems.

I'm either going to buy the new Artisan 50, or send the old 960 in for repair. Either choice will be $100. But if the Artisan won't take thick papers I don't want it. If you own this printer, tell me your experience with heavyweight papers. Thanks!
