Forgot to respond to you on one point: no, the package does not state
the thickness. In fact, the service guy asked me the same question.

Amd no, I think he meant that in general no Epson printer could handle
this stock in any fashion. In fact, he said because I was using Avery
paper, a third party, the printer would not be under warranty!

No, it does not have a rear slot.

Thanks for your suggestions, however!
