Good printer for small stock (envelopes, cards, labels)

[LurfysMa]

In our small office setup, we print a lot of envelopes. Mostly #9,
some #10. We also print some 4x6 and 5x8 cards and various other small
forms including 3x5 cards. Once a year we print Christmas envelopes of
various sizes. I would like to also print on the Christmas cards, but
we don't have a printer that will feed and orient/align them reliably.

Our production printer is a big HP 5000, which does a great job on
standard paper. It also does a good job with envelopes if we remember
to open the back tray, but it is inconvenient to be loading and
unloading envelopes. It has some problems with smaller stock.

We would like to buy a small printer that will be dedicated to #9
envelopes and can also be used for other small stock at times.

The top priority is handling small stock flawlessly. I don't care if
it is laser of inkjet. Color would be good, but nor required.

It will be attached to the network via usb to a printer hub.

We already have fax/copier/scanner so multifunction is not needed.

I would appeciate any recommendations.

Here are my priorities a little better organized. The top 4 are
requirements. The rest are "would be nice".

1. Flawless paper handling for small forms.
2. Can feed a stack of envelopes, cards, labels.
3. Straight path so forms not bent.
4. Can handle thicker stock (at least card stock).
5. Inkjet preferred because of heat to custom paper.
6. Duplex would be a real treat, but not required.
7. Color would be nice, but not required. Probably all inkjets are
color these days.
8. Price. Not really a factor.

The Canon IP4300 does well with various sizes of envelopes.
