The only thing you can do is to up the fuser temp but you may find you get problems with normal paper.

Adjust the staple position in service mode? Ad plain setting paper to suit the thicker stuff.

Has a similar request, but this was only to Fold a 90gsm full colour A3, So no stapling was involved.
The Driver does not let you Bind and Fold Thick 1

But

You can use the driver's Cover mode utility, with the Cover Source as Thick 1, and it will Fold! (but Only for one sheet of course)

You need a production MFP to saddle stitch heavy paper..Office MFPs will ONLY work with plain paper. You can try and fool it, but CQ will be off because the device settings are not accounting for thick modes. Emujo

And there's every chance you will break the folding blade. We've had a few break just on 80gsm!

You have a specification limitation.

Re: C220 Booklet with thick paper

Even with your fixing temperature at it's highest settings it will not properly fuse the heavy gloss paper. After as little as 8 pages the fuser temperature at the center of the fuser will drop low enough to get toner blistering off the paper. And normal 75gsm plain paper will wrinkle.

This was definitely not my idea. In fact it's a very bad idea. It works poorly, and noone is happy. Your enduser needs a production level machine machine.

If you want to complain to someone, complain to the manufacturer for combining a 80gsm capable booklet finisher with a 256gsm capable MFP. Or complain to the salesman for a poor match between enduser and device.
