    Does anyone knows if iRC5185 can handle 300gr velvet thick paper stock or special papers?
    I now own a iRC3200 but I intend to buy an iRC5185.
    With 3200 I can print on 300gr paper, but I don't know if the 5185 can handle this heavy weight paper.
    Does anyone have an iRC5185 or iRC4080 ?
    Please help!

    No, you cant. The 3200 fixing type is two roller, while the 5185 is belt type, you wiil have a problem at least 2 inches from the end side
