FAQs

Can I use this card in an inkjet printer?

Yes, this card is specifically engineered to be compatible with both inkjet and laser printer technologies.

Is this card suitable for double-sided printing?

Yes, the 160gsm weight provides enough opacity to minimize show-through, making it suitable for double-sided documents.

How many sheets are in each pack?

Each ream contains 250 sheets of A4 card.

What is the primary difference between this and standard 80gsm copy paper?

This card is twice as thick as standard copy paper, providing significantly more rigidity and a higher-quality feel for professional projects.

Does this paper have a glossy finish?

No, it features a bright white finish but is not coated with a glossy laminate, making it ideal for text readability.

Troubleshooting

Printer indicates a paper jam

Ensure the card is loaded in the manual bypass tray rather than the main high-capacity tray, as many printers struggle to pull thick media through long, complex paper paths.

Toner is smearing or rubbing off

Adjust your printer software to 'Cardstock' mode, which allows the printer to slow down the print process, giving the fuser more time to heat and bond the toner to the thicker fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thickness for professional presentation covers
  • Bright white finish enhances print clarity
  • Broad compatibility with laser and inkjet printing technologies
  • Sturdy construction resists wrinkling and tearing
  • Standard A4 dimensions for ease of use

Cons

  • May be too thick for some entry-level document feeders
  • Limited to a single size and color finish
  • Heavier weight increases shipping costs for direct mailings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, users should ensure their printer settings are adjusted to reflect the heavier media weight. Access your printer's "Print Preferences" or "Paper Type" menu and select "Cardstock" or "Heavy Paper (160gsm)" to ensure the fuser temperature and feed speed are correctly calibrated. Store the paper in a cool, dry environment, preferably in its original ream packaging to prevent humidity from affecting the moisture content of the card, which can lead to paper jams or toner adhesion issues.
