Whether you're stocking up for a busy office, running a home printer, or tackling a creative project, we've got a paper for the job. From reliable everyday A4 for high-volume printing to heavier weights for standout reports and photo paper for crisp, vibrant prints, you'll find the right finish, size and grade in one place and buying in bulk keeps the cost per sheet down even further.
Alongside everyday printer paper, Low Cost Office stocks blotting paper, card, photo paper, listing paper, tally rolls and receipts and more. Not sure which paper suits your job? Our printer paper guide below breaks down the core things to consider weight, size, colour and brand so you can choose with confidence.
1. What weight of printer paper should I use?
For everyday printing, 80gsm is the most popular choice practical, affordable and reliable in any office printer. Step up to 100–120gsm for documents meant to impress, like reports and CVs, and choose paper above 120gsm for marketing material such as brochures and flyers, where a heavier, premium feel matters.
2. What's the difference between paper and card?
It mainly comes down to weight and thickness. Standard printer paper typically ranges from 80–120gsm, while card starts around 160gsm and up, giving it a firmer, more durable finish. Card is ideal for business cards, invitations, covers and craft projects, whereas everyday paper suits general printing and copying.
3. Which paper is best for printing photos?
Photo paper gives the sharpest, most vibrant results, as it's coated to hold ink better than standard paper. Choose a gloss finish for bright, punchy images, or matte for a softer look with no glare. Heavier gsm grades feel more premium and are less prone to curling, making them ideal for prints you want to keep or display.
4. What paper sizes do you stock?
We stock A3, A4 and A5 printer paper. A4 is the standard for everyday office and home printing, A3 is ideal for posters or creating A4 booklets, and A5 suits smaller documents like flyers and notes. Most printers also let you print A4 booklets using the booklet option in your settings.
5. Can I use normal printer paper in any printer?
Yes, standard 80gsm paper works in virtually all inkjet and laser office printers, which is why it's the everyday go-to. For heavier weights, card or photo paper, it's worth checking your printer's maximum supported gsm, as very thick stock may need a specific paper tray or setting to feed correctly.
