When it’s time to print your most recent project or document, do you know what paper you’ll choose? You’re probably thinking, “Well, regular printer paper, of course!” You may think it’s the obvious answer, but what if we told you that you have a lot more options at your disposal?
Staples offers long-lasting, smudge-proof printer and copy paper in numerous shapes and varieties that can help take your next print job from ordinary to extraordinary.
Printer vs. Copy Paper
There are plenty of paper options for you to choose from, but before that, you need to decide whether you want printer or copy paper. While printer paper and copy paper are practically one and the same, there are some slight differences between the two.
Copy paper is thinner than printer paper, which doesn’t make a huge difference when you’re printing text, but it does when you’re printing large images. Images require a lot of ink and because copy paper has a thinner structure, the ink will need to spread out more for the paper to absorb it all (think of it like a paper towel soaking up liquid.) As a result, images frequently come out looking distorted. So, if you’re planning on printing a ton of images, we recommend that you grab a ream of color printer paper.
Otherwise, printer and copy paper are practically indistinguishable to the naked eye when using or shopping for it.
What Type of Paper is Best for Color Printing?
For color printing, you’ll want your final result to look vibrant and impressive, which has a lot to do with the paper you choose. You may gravitate toward a standard white paper with a matte finish, but depending on what you’re printing, that might not be the best option. The color and size, such as 12 x 18, of your paper are important to keep in mind, but the finish of the paper will have the most effect on your color print job. For the best results, you may want to look for a cotton-based printer paper that has a glossy or semi-gloss finish to make the hues you use pop.
How Much Printer Paper Do I Need?
Printer paper comes in a wide range of package sizes, so buy the amount that suits your needs. A ream contains 500 sheets of paper, which is much more suitable for personal or home use. If you’re printing commercially, you should order cases that contain multiple reams or even opt for a pallet that contains 40 cases.
Even if you’re not sure how much paper you need, we’ve got you covered. You can sort through our collection of paper by quantity and by use so you can find the right product for you quickly and easily.
How Do I Know If My Printer Paper is Eco-Friendly?
If you want to make sure your home or business is environmentally-friendly, consider looking for paper that is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). To obtain this certification the printer paper must meet FSC’s primary requirement and be harvested as well as produced in a sustainably responsible manner.
