Paper Thickness

Paper thickness is given by the weight of the paper in either grams per square meter (g/m2) or in pounds per bond (lbs/bond). The following table shows the allowable paper thickness for one-part paper or for each sheet of multipart paper. The total thickness must not exceed 0.35 mm (0.014 inch).

The weight of carbonless or carbon-backed paper may vary, depending on the paper manufacturer. When using paper of borderline thickness, test the paper before running a job.
