Looking for a low price 100gsm printer paper. Where do you get yours from? My printer is an inkjet.

Look in supermarkets, stationers, and pick one. 100gsm is typically a lot more than 80gsm as 80gsm is muck-common, 100gsm more specialised. If we're talking a ream or two, remember we're talking about a few quid so don't overstress the search0

I have found that papers of the same weight vary a lot in quality from supplier to supplier. If you are only needing a few reams then your local office supplies shop is probably best as they will usually let you see a sample of the paper before you buy a ream.0

Viking do great deals on boxes of A4 paper, are usually on Quidco and quite often have free delivery weekends with next working day delivery service. They have so many brands and bundle options you just have to pick through them as they always have something on offer at a ridiculously low price. No idea about 100gsm but personally would get a cheap laser printer before bothering with decent quality paper.0

I buy mine from either Sainsbury's or Amazon, whatever the best offer is
e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005EDV9BM/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE
(it's 80gsm, but I found the quality very good compared to other brands including HP)0 -
You haven't said what you are using the paper for - is it everyday printing, or do you need something a bit more impressive? How many pages do you print in a typical month? I was wondering because if you are doing a lot of printing, it might pay to invest in a laser printer rather than an inkjet.0

I am using it for customer workbook. I have value Tesco for my everyday use but want a good quality 4 customer. Each customer has a 20 page workbook at the start of my relationship with them. It's not a lot of printing so laser would be over kill 4 me.“…the ‘insatiability doctrine – we spend money we don’t have, on things we don’t need, to make impressions that don’t last, on people we don’t care about.” Professor Tim Jackson
