Formation

Formation is the distribution of fibers in paper. Fibers should be distributed evenly throughout the sheet. Although formation is not included in the manufacturer’s specifications, you can check it by holding a sheet up to a light. If the sheet looks even throughout, it has good formation. If you see uneven light and dark areas, formation is poor.

Good formation is especially important when documents include halftone images of photographs or high ink coverage. Halftone images appear sharper on paper with good formation. Solid images can appear uneven or spotty when printed on paper with poor formation.
