FAQs

Is this paper suitable for inkjet printers?

While optimized for laser printers and copiers, this paper is generally compatible with inkjet printers for standard text documents; however, results may vary for high-ink images.

What does 70gsm mean?

GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter. It indicates the paper weight. 70gsm is standard for everyday printing, making it lightweight and efficient for bulk copying.

Can I use this for double-sided printing?

Yes, but due to the 70gsm weight, you may experience some ink show-through if your printer deposits a high volume of toner or ink.

How many sheets are in a single pack?

The pack contains 5 reams, with 500 sheets in each ream, for a total of 2,500 sheets.

Is the paper acid-free?

Yes, this paper is produced to be suitable for standard document retention needs in office environments.

Troubleshooting

Paper jams during printing

Ensure the paper stack is neatly aligned in the tray and check that the paper guides are snug against the edges of the stack without being too tight.

Multiple sheets feeding at once

Remove the paper from the tray, fan the sheets to break static adhesion, and reload the stack.

Text appears faint or smudged

Verify that your printer's 'Toner Saver' or 'Draft' mode is disabled, and ensure the printer settings match the paper type.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Economical solution for high-volume document needs
  • Reliable, jam-resistant performance in standard printers
  • Crisp white finish enhances document readability
  • Standardized A4 size fits all common office equipment
  • Individually wrapped reams simplify storage and organization

Cons

  • Not intended for high-resolution photo printing
  • Lighter 70gsm weight may show bleed-through with heavy ink usage
  • Not suitable for premium professional presentations requiring heavy cardstock
  • Requires proper humidity control for optimal results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure peak performance, follow these guidelines for handling and usage:

  1. Storage: Keep reams in their original plastic wrapping in a cool, dry place. Exposure to extreme humidity can cause the paper to curl or jam during the printing process.
  2. Loading the Tray: Do not overfill your printer tray. Fan the paper lightly before loading to prevent sheets from sticking together due to static electricity.
  3. Printer Settings: Select the 'Plain Paper' or 'Standard' media setting in your printer dialog box. This ensures the correct temperature and feed speed are applied to the 70gsm stock.
  4. Handling: Keep the paper flat and avoid bending the corners, as damaged edges are the primary cause of paper jams in high-speed copiers.
