well - it is pretty thick, but more than anything it's really stiff

I tend to just load it on the rear sheet loader, one sheet at a time, 
though for bigger than letter size I have also run it through the 
main feed on the 2400

If you have the cut sheets in smaller sizes, it is 365 gsm which is 
pretty heavy stuff

(BTW - make sure you print the correct side - my box from digital art 
supplies was loaded upside down. Both sides of the paper are coated. 
But I believe only the side with the greater texture is the Museuo 
Max coating)
