Frequently Asked Questions
Is this paper compatible with laser printers?

Is this paper compatible with laser printers?
No, this is inkjet-coated paper designed specifically for use with inkjet printers. Using it in a laser printer may produce poor results or cause jams.
Can I print on both sides of the paper?
This paper is coated on one side only, so it is intended for single-sided printing. The uncoated back side will not produce the same print quality.
What is the paper weight?
The paper is 27 lb weight with a 4.9 mil thickness, giving it a sturdier feel than standard copy paper.
Is this paper glossy or matte?
It has a smooth matte coated finish, which reduces glare and fingerprints compared to glossy photo paper while still producing vibrant color output.
How does the matte finish compare to glossy photo paper?
The matte finish eliminates glare and reflections, making it ideal for text-heavy documents and images viewed under overhead lighting. It produces a more subdued, professional look compared to the high-shine surface of glossy paper.
What paper weight is the S041062?
It is a 27 lb sheet with a thickness of 4.9 mil, which is noticeably heavier and sturdier than standard 20 lb copy paper but thinner than dedicated photo paper.
Can I print on both sides of the paper?
No, this is a single-sided coated paper. The matte coating is only on one side, so double-sided printing will not produce the same quality on the reverse.
Is this paper suitable for photo printing?
It works well for documents and flyers that include photos, but for dedicated photo printing with maximum color depth, Epson's premium photo paper lines are a better choice.
How many sheets are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 100 sheets of 8.5 x 11 inch paper.
