FAQs

Is this paper suitable for inkjet printers?

Yes, it is designed to be compatible with both laser and inkjet printers.

Can I use this for double-sided printing?

While it can be printed on both sides, the 160gsm thickness is not heavy enough to completely prevent shadows if using dark inks.

Does the yellow color bleed when printed on?

No, the card is manufactured with high-quality pigments that resist running or bleeding during the printing process.

What is the thickness of this cardstock in microns?

160gsm cardstock is generally equivalent to approximately 200 microns in thickness.

Is this acid-free paper?

Yes, Clairefontaine Trophee card is archival quality and acid-free.

Troubleshooting

Paper jams during printing

Ensure you are using the manual bypass tray instead of the main paper cassette, as the bypass tray provides a straighter path.

Toner smudging on the card

Adjust your printer software settings to 'Heavy Paper' or 'Cardstock' to increase the fuser temperature and ensure proper toner adhesion.

Curling after printing

Store the paper in a low-humidity environment and try feeding it through the printer in a different orientation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent stiffness and weight for professional presentation
  • Highly compatible with all major printer types
  • Rich, consistent color quality that does not fade easily
  • Reliable feeding in standard desktop equipment

Cons

  • Not suitable for duplex printing where content might shadow through
  • Yellow background can alter the appearance of printed ink colors
  • Heavier than standard paper, which may exceed some specialty printer weight limits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal results, always verify your printer's manual to confirm it accepts 160gsm media, as some entry-level inkjet printers have tight paper paths that may struggle with thicker stock. Always load the cardstock into the manual feed or bypass tray if possible to ensure a flat paper path and reduce the risk of curling. Store the pack in a cool, dry place to prevent humidity from affecting the paper's stiffness, and keep the sheets sealed in their original wrapper until you are ready to print to maintain the integrity of the color and finish.
