Product Information

Full details

The 5 Star Office Coloured Copier Paper in light yellow is an ideal solution for office managers, teachers, and creative professionals who need a reliable medium for high-volume printing, document classification, and arts and crafts. Its primary benefit lies in its vibrant colour, which facilitates instant visual identification of documents; however, it is important to note that the paper is specifically designed for standard 80gsm copy applications and may not be suitable for heavy-duty professional inkjet art or high-resolution photography.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this paper safe for laser printers?

Yes, this paper is engineered for standard copying and laser printing environments.

What does the PEFC certification mean?

It guarantees that the wood fibers used in the paper come from forests that are managed according to strict environmental and social standards.

Can I use this for double-sided printing?

Yes, however, because it is 80gsm paper, expect some transparency depending on how heavy the ink coverage is on the opposite side.

Is the paper recycled?

This specific 5 Star Office product is PEFC certified, which focuses on sustainable forest management rather than recycled content.

Will the colour fade over time?

Like most dyed papers, prolonged exposure to intense sunlight may cause the colour to lighten over time. For permanent filing, keep documents in folders.

Troubleshooting

Paper jamming in the printer tray

Fan the sheets before loading to reduce static and ensure the printer's guides are set correctly to A4 width.

Ink looks muddy or off-colour

Adjust the printer's color balance settings to compensate for the yellow background, or select 'Grayscale' if the text is all that is required.

Edges curling after printing

Store paper in its original moisture-proof wrapping until the moment it is needed to prevent humidity absorption.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for colour-coding documents
  • Reliable, jam-free performance in copiers
  • Sustainable PEFC certified materials
  • Bright, consistent light yellow pigment

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-end photo printing
  • May show through if printing double-sided with heavy black ink
  • Colour may vary slightly between different production batches

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure your printer settings are adjusted for standard plain paper. Because the paper is coloured, verify that your printer's colour profiles are set to standard output to avoid unwanted color-shifting on the yellow base. To maintain the paper's quality, keep the reams stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; prolonged exposure to UV light can cause the yellow pigment to fade over time. Always fan the paper stack before loading it into the printer tray to prevent static buildup and potential multi-sheet feeding issues.
