Key Procurement Considerations
When selecting suppliers or specific models, please focus on the following four dimensions:
Paper Weight and Thickness (230g)
Verify Weight: Confirm the product is clearly labeled as "230g/m²." Too light may indicate thin, translucent paper; too heavy might exceed your printer's paper feeder weight limit. Stiffness Test: 230g is a medium thickness (approx. 0.28-0.32mm) and should feel rigid. High-quality 230g paper is often used for business cards, postcards, or album inserts and should resist curling.
Coating Technology and Print Quality
Double-Sided Coating Consistency: For double-sided paper, ensure the coating is uniform on both sides with no variation in thickness.
- Matte Finish: Check that the surface is truly non-reflective. A high-quality matte coating absorbs light, providing a soft, professional artistic finish that does not retain fingerprints.
- Color Reproduction: A superior coating provides high color saturation and sharpness, ensuring deep, rich blacks rather than grayish tones.
Ink Compatibility and Drying Speed
- Absorbency: The matte coating must absorb ink quickly to prevent bleeding. Before purchasing, confirm whether the paper is optimized for dye-based or pigment inks (usually universal, but high-end models may require specific matches).
- Waterproofing: Once dry, the text or image should have a certain degree of water resistance and scratch resistance.
Printer Compatibility
- Feeder Limits: Although 230g is standard cardstock weight, check your inkjet printer specifications to confirm that the manual feed tray supports paper in the 200g-250g range to avoid jams.
- Size Specifications: Confirm that the purchased size (e.g., A4, A3, 4x6 inches) matches your usual requirements.

230g Double-Sided Inkjet Matte Paper - FAQ
Specifications & Physical Properties
Q1: Is 230gsm paper too thick for a standard inkjet printer? Will it cause jams?
A: 230gsm is considered thick cardstock. While it is too heavy for the main automatic tray (which usually maxes out at 120g-200g), it works perfectly in the manual feed tray (single-sheet feeder) found on most modern inkjet printers (Epson, Canon, HP). Please ensure you adjust the paper thickness lever accordingly to avoid jams.
Q2: What is the exact thickness (caliper) of this paper?
A: The thickness of 230gsm matte paper typically ranges from 0.28mm to 0.32mm, depending on the pulp density. It offers a premium, rigid feel, making it ideal for business cards, postcards, and art prints.
Printing & Post-Processing
Q3: The ink feels like it can be smudged. Is this normal?
A: Yes, this is common with matte inkjet paper. Matte coatings absorb a lot of ink, and sometimes pigment-based inks may take longer to fully oxidize. We recommend letting the print dry for a few minutes before handling. For best results, do not stack freshly printed sheets directly on top of each other; use interleaving tissue paper if storing.
Q4: Can I write on this paper with pen or pencil after printing?
A: Absolutely. Unlike glossy photo paper, matte paper has a textured surface that is excellent for writing. Pens, markers, and pencils will glide smoothly over the surface, making this paper perfect for RSVP cards or signed certificates.
Packaging & Logistics
Q5: How is the paper packaged to prevent curling during shipping?
A: To maintain flatness, we pack the reams in rigid cardboard boxes or kraft paper wrap with edge protectors. For sea freight, the cartons are palletized. Upon arrival, if there is slight curling due to humidity, simply flatten the ream under a heavy book for 24 hours.
Q6: Do you offer custom cutting or private labeling for this weight?
A: Yes, 230gsm is one of our most popular weights for custom OEM orders. We can customize the size (e.g., 5x7 inches, 8.5x11 inches) and provide full-color printed packaging with your brand logo.
Q7: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wholesale?
A: The standard MOQ for 230gsm double-sided matte paper is usually 50 reams (approx. 2,500 sheets) for a 20ft container load equivalent, but we can be flexible depending on your market demand.
