     On this note about laser printers and types of paper, has anyone tried putting thick paper through a laser printer?  I was in a store, and I saw people make their business cards with calamus on paper as thick as business cards are, and then just cut them up.  I would be terribly worried that this would damage the printer, but they don't seem to have a problem.  Doesn't this void the warranty?
