- Because paper between 20lb and 24lb is marketed as both copier or printer paper, then the answer is yes.
- However, paper rated at less than 20lb is understood to be classified as “copier” paper.
- We have two brands of copier paper or printer paper available on our site.
- The 8 ½” x 11” paper available on our site is:
- A1 Brand Copy Paper Case, 20lb with a 95 Brightness rating. It includes ten reams at 500 sheets per ream for a total of 5,000 sheets.
- Double-A Brand Copy and Multi-Use Paper, 20lb with a 96 Brightness rating. The carton contains 5,000 sheets in ten reams of 500.
- Both of these brands can also be used as printer paper.
- The high brightness level means these are usable for many applications such as reports, personal communication, internal office memos, and more.
- Copier paper is thinner than the type of paper used for most applications. It is best suited for internal memos or documents that will not be circulated externally.
- We don’t recommend copier paper rated at 16lb for double-sided color printing using laserjet printers. However, you can still print double-sided on copier paper, provided you use black ink.
- We have two options available for small rooms that measure 110 square feet in area or less.
- For rooms with an area of 110 square feet or lower, we offer the Filtrete™ Room Air Purifier FAP-C01BA-G1. It is a true Hepa filter designed to control allergens, bacteria, and viruses.
