Frequently Asked Questions About HP Plotter Paper
What size plotter paper do I need for my HP DesignJet?
The size depends on your specific HP DesignJet model. Most common widths are 24" (for compact plotters), 36" (standard architectural size), and 42" (for larger engineering drawings). Check your printer specifications or contact our team for assistance in selecting the right wide-format media for your HP plotter.
What's the difference between bond paper and coated paper for plotters?
Bond paper (20-24 lb) is uncoated CAD bond paper ideal for line drawings, blueprints, and technical documents where quick drying and economy are priorities. Coated plotter paper (35+ lb) has a special surface treatment that provides better color reproduction and image quality, making it perfect for presentations, posters, and graphics with photos or color fills.
How many feet are in a standard roll of HP plotter paper?
Standard HP plotter paper rolls typically come in 150-foot or 300-foot lengths. The 150-foot rolls are more common for heavier-weight papers and specialty media, while 300-foot rolls are available for standard 20 lb bond paper. Extended 500-foot rolls are also available for high-volume printing environments.
Can I use third-party paper in my HP DesignJet plotter?
Yes, HP DesignJet plotters can use compatible third-party wide-format paper. However, HP-branded plotter paper is specifically engineered and tested to deliver optimal results with HP ink systems, ensuring consistent quality, preventing printhead damage, and maintaining your warranty coverage.
How should I store unused plotter paper rolls?
Store plotter paper rolls horizontally in a calm, dry environment away from direct sunlight. Keep rolls in their original packaging until use, and maintain room temperature between 59-77°F with 20-80% humidity. Proper storage prevents curling and yellowing, ensuring your wide-format media maintains print quality.
