FAQs

What does '80 GSM' mean?

GSM stands for 'Grams per Square Meter'. 80 GSM is a standard paper weight, common for everyday office printing and copying, offering a good balance between quality and efficiency.

Is this paper suitable for archival purposes?

Yes, the paper features maximum ageing resistance, making it suitable for documents that need to be preserved for a long time.

Can I use this paper for photos?

While this paper is high quality, it is primarily designed for business documents. For professional photo printing, specialized photo paper is recommended.

What does FSC certified mean for this paper?

FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification means that the wood fibers used to make the paper come from responsibly managed forests that protect biodiversity and the rights of workers and local communities.

How does chlorine-free whitening work?

Instead of using chlorine-based chemicals, a special converting process is used on the recycled fibers to achieve a high level of whiteness.

Will the recycled content affect my printer?

This paper is designed for trouble-free printing in standard office equipment. Its good sheet formation and 80 GSM weight make it compatible with most printers and copiers.

What is the difference between this and non-recycled paper?

The primary difference is its environmental impact; this paper uses 100% recycled fiber. You might notice a very subtle difference in texture or shade compared to paper made from virgin pulp, but its printing performance is comparable for most applications.

Troubleshooting

Paper jams frequently

Ensure the paper is loaded correctly in the tray, not overfilled, and that the paper guides are properly adjusted. Check that the paper is not curled or creased. Try fanning the sheets before loading.

Print quality is poor (smudged or faded)

Check your printer's ink or toner levels. Clean the printer heads or drums according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the paper is the correct way up for your printer if applicable.

Paper is not feeding correctly

Verify that the paper size setting on your printer matches the A3 size of the paper. Ensure the paper stack is flat and aligned.
