Not all Digital Papers are created Equal

Customized printing for effective communications is increasing and therefore so are Digital printers. In the past, paper mills have attempted to produce one universal paper grade for all the different digital printers, only to now conclude that each printer requires different paper attributes for the highest reproduction. Printers are demanding more of the paper. Hewlett-Packard (HP) is the leading digital printer, commanding nearly 42% market share. This printer has always demanded very different specifications than Kodak, Xerox, and Xeikon. Typically, the HP printer requires a special coating.
Paper.com has nearly every Digital Paper for all the various printers. Mills include Mohawk, International Paper, StoraEnso, NewPage, Finch, Smart, Domtar and Wausau. They have an experienced team ready to answer questions about the different paper characteristics of each grade.
