Does anyone know what is typically the safest weight of cardstock you can use on an Epson printer to print simple greeting cards? Thanks.

Find the make, MODEL of the printer and then check the printer's specifications. That has been the safest course but keep in mind that as the printer ages it may lose the ability to print on it's heaviest specified stock.

Cardstock

MOST printers (inkjet) don't burp too badly with 65 lb. The problems usually starts when you go over that but for the most part 65lb. should run ok.
