Hammermill® FAQs

Why buy color copier paper?

With all the extra advantages of color, it’s important to select a paper specially formulated to maximize the performance of a color copier. Color copier paper has the surface characteristics needed to handle the often heavy application of color toner, so there’s less show-through of text or graphics. The paper’s extra bright shade also helps produce spectacular images, no matter how intense or subtle the colors.

Laser printers are capable of producing exceptionally detailed images. However, to take maximum advantage of this feature, it’s important to use laser paper.

In addition, laser papers are brighter than copier paper, so images really stand out on the page.
