Table 3-9. Heavyweight coated (140 to 220 gsm)
Description Any coated paper for use in printing that weighs 140 gsm or more. Coatings
may be applied to one or both sides to enhance image quality.
Selection tips Dry ink may not adhere well to some high-gloss, semi-gloss, and gloss
coated heavyweight stocks. Test a small quantity before making a large
purchase.
Storage tips Handle with care. Coating increases weight and susceptibility to damage.
Usage tips • Enter accurate Stock Library information.
• If possible, load heavyweight papers with the grain parallel to the lead
edge of the paper tray so it will bend easier as it moves through the
press.
