For quite while now, we have been using an Imagen 5/480 Laser
printer with NP PAPER for CANON plain paper copier, (produced
by CANON), and we are not at all happy with the paper quality.
[This paper is sold by Ahearn & Soper, and is standardly dis-
tributed with some imagen printers]

Although we have a brand-new drum, and everything is in excellent
operational order, quite a few sheets come out with "blotches",
areas not properly printed, or "white spots", where ink did not
stay on the paper at all.

It seems that this canon paper is not properly and evenly
burnished on the printing surface (only one side is recommended
for "best" copy) and hence, I am looking for another brand of
paper with higher quality, and also suitable for Imagen wet-process
laser printers.

Somebody did recommend Monaco Offset Enamel (70 weight) for these
printers, but Barber Ellis (the paper-folks) no longer carry 70
weight, and 80 weight paper is simply too thick, and causes paper
jams.

If you are running an imagen wet-process laser printer (10/300 or
5/480) and had good results with a different paper, please, please
let me know.
