Genuine HP media for your plotter
Pluss supplies HP original CAD papers for wide-format printers and plotters. Many offices prefer to run the manufacturer’s own media – it is designed alongside the printer and its inks, and gives a predictable result from roll to roll.
You can download our HP range information as a PDF (see the download link on this page) and then call the team for current sizes, roll lengths, pricing and availability.
Who uses HP CAD paper?
CAD papers are the workhorse of the technical drawing office. Our customers include:
- Architects producing plans, elevations and presentation drawings
- Engineering and CAD departments
- Local authorities printing planning and site documents
- Reprographics and print-on-demand services
Choosing the right CAD paper
The main choice is between uncoated and coated papers. As a general guide:
- Uncoated papers suit monochrome line drawings and check plots, where speed and economy matter most.
- Coated papers hold ink on the surface, giving sharper lines and stronger colour – better for colour line work, area fill and presentation output.
- Paper weight (gsm) affects feel and durability; see our guide to paper weight and gsm.
Our guide to choosing CAD paper goes into more detail.
HP original or Pluss branded?
Alongside HP media we offer our own Pluss branded CAD papers: an uncoated 90gsm paper for mono line work, MIDCOL 90 light-coated paper for colour line and fill, and Premium Coated CAD 90. Some customers standardise on HP originals; others mix HP and Pluss papers depending on the job. We are happy to talk through the options.
| Range | Typical reason to choose it |
|---|---|
| HP original CAD papers | Manufacturer’s own media, designed alongside HP printers and inks |
| Pluss branded CAD papers | Uncoated, light-coated and premium coated options from our own range |
Looking after your rolls
Store paper rolls in their packaging, on their ends or suspended, away from damp and direct heat. Paper that absorbs moisture can cockle and print poorly. Our guide to storing media has more tips.
