Which specific HPLJ 5 do you have? 5L, 5Si, 5P...

Ed,

Plain 5

The paper path is a tight U from input to output tray (tray dependent) and
heavier card stock can jam if used in the wrong one. I do not think you
can use the duplexer attachment. The LJ 5 being more "office" and less
"home" could handle a bit heavier card stock. also, depending on model,
there is a rear manual feed with a flatter paper path for card stock - I
think. It's been a loooong time since I used an LJ5.

This occurred to me last evening. I will specify the printer as
'laser5-single' to lpr so it doesn't travel through the duplexer.

I'll be gone for a few days so this will be addressed next week.

Happy holiday,

Rich
