Hammermill Premium Color 32 lb paper is a heavyweight option that feels more like stationery than standard copy paper. At 32 lb, it is nearly 60% thicker than common office paper, making it ideal for professional presentations, resumes, and double-sided color documents where you want zero show-through.
The 100 brightness rating provides an ultra-white surface that makes colors pop and text appear exceptionally sharp. This paper uses a specialized smooth finish that helps toner and ink bond effectively to the surface. Because the paper is thicker than usual, it is a good idea to check your printer's settings and select the "Heavyweight" or "Cardstock" mode to ensure the internal rollers pull the sheets through correctly.
This paper is highly durable and holds up well to handling. It is an excellent choice for important projects where first impressions matter. Since it is sold in single reams of 500 sheets, it is easy to keep on hand for those times when standard paper just isn't substantial enough.
For your everyday, high-volume printing where such thickness isn't required, you may want to keep a stock of Amazon Basics 20 lb paper as a cost-effective secondary option.
