    What a stupid question!

    You get what you pay for, I have customers using the cheapest paper they can buy, & they wonder why they get so many jams, also cheap paper causes a lot of paper dust so blocks sensors, & lint sticks to the feed rollers etc so you'll end up replacing feed rollers more often.
    Let us eat, drink, and be merry, because tomorrow we may die!

        Penny wise. Dollar Stupid.
        How much paper is wasted because of jamming?
        Why do they call it common sense?

        If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                Those in the know bought cheap paper where I work - a whole pallet load of it - I got really really good at clearing jams and misfeeds!! - anyone want a basically unused pallet of 'cheap' paper?...free to a good home!!!

                  The faster the machine the more obvious the paper quality becomes. One whole building used the same paper but my BH B1250 machines jammed into the drum pawls like clock work.
                  Turned out to be a bit of a bad cut edge. I change the paper brand and the problem was gone. The problem is to explain to them that the paper is NG and 30 other machines works fine.
                  So they would run out of good paper change back to the old paper, it took a fit from my side to get the operator to make his own life easier.

                  2 million prints later and no jams or jams i get called for.
                  Whatever

                      You can feed anything thru a Ricoh 3025.

                      Maybe your machine is Jamming? The guys from this site is for a couple of continents so if i say Sappi paper is cheap and good its not going to mean anything to you.

                      your from nowhere its difficult to say.

                      Any ISO graded paper should be good.

                        Dear Allan.

                        I will order a container if this brand is perfect.

                        regards.

                              I have even used good ISO grade % rice based paper. Made in China.
                              Cheaper to import than to manufacture locally. ZA stopped importing it.
