does it matter which side of the bag is facing up (rough or smooth), when you seal the bag?

We recommend putting the bag with the smooth side facing down to the sealing bar.

Does this machine have the accessory option

Yes, It comes with the accessory option to seal jars or zip bags from food saver.

Is the 5200 the same as the 5480 or the 5380?

Pretty much. The difference between the 5200 and the 5380 is in the number and types of bags that come with the machine. The 5480 has a "pulse" feature, which just slows down the rate at which the vacuum extracts the air out of the bag, useful if you don't want overly crush delicate things I guess. Personally, I've never found it that difficult to hit the "seal" button to stop vacuuming at the right time with normal pump operation.

does it work with ball jar attachment?

Yes, the FM5000 series is compatible with jar sealers and any other FoodSaver accessory and container. Happy shopping!
