COPY AND OFFICE MACHINE PAPERS

Copy papers are specially moisture-balanced to operate problem-free in photocopiers.

Laser and Ink Jet papers are marketed for those types of office printers, although most copy and bond papers work fine in those machines as well.

Many papers are now marketed as "Dual-Purpose" or "Multi-Purpose," to meet the needs for Bond, Copy, Laser, and Ink Jet papers.

Imaging Papers (listed separately at bottom of page) are often used for printing photographs and color designs.

Be sure that the paper you use in your copier is rated for copier use, especially if it is a high-speed copier. Many jams and other problems are blamed on recycled paper when the problem actually is use of an inappropriate paper.

* Papers marked with an asterisk do not meet mandated requirements for purchases by U.S. government and many state and local agencies and contractors.
