More about the GDS uncoated 80gsm & 90gsm paper products…
This product is an uncoated plain plotter paper which is available in both rolls and sheets and is perfect for basic drawings in house plans, layouts & CAD work. Our uncoated paper comes in two popular weights.
Traditionally architects and construction firms favoured 80gsm as this grade not only folded very well but was also the least expensive to post with Royal Mail. Nowadays, as plotters have developed and colour work is pretty much standard we offer two weights as follows:
- 80gsm Draft Uncoated CAD Plotter Paper (shown here)
- 90gsm Standard Uncoated CAD Plotter Paper
GDS 80gsm Draft Paper is favoured for black and white line work usually associated with technical drawings and layouts, whilst this 90gsm version is favoured by customers adding colour line work and small fills as it will accept a little more ink without ‘cockling’ (warping from too much wet ink). GDS 80gsm Draft Paper is a basic, lightweight, matt surfaced, uncoated paper just like the standard A4 photocopy paper you find in every office printer or copier, just supplied on a roll. It is perfect for check prints, in house plans, and any prints where the basic paper will do.
GDS 90gsm Standard Inkjet Plotter Paper is a smooth matt surfaced, bright white, uncoated paper ideal for in-house drawings, check prints, colour line work, layouts, plans, Auto CAD drawings, maps and technical drawings. It is a fraction heavier than the 80gsm Draft Paper so our customers prefer it for colour work or where their plans have fills as an everyday value for money paper.
Our GDS brand rolls are made for us by outstanding manufacturers including Océ, Canon and Xerox to give you the very best quality at the lowest price possible.

What GDS recommends from our range for your perfect Canon iPF670 prints…
Whether you need iPF670 CAD paper (uncoated basic plain white paper) for printing technical drawings and layouts, iPF670 Presentation paper (coated with a unique inkjet layer to give a higher quality print), iPF670 Heavyweight paper, or iPF670 Photo Paper to make sure your images look tip top, we can pinpoint the roll or sheet pack for you. We have put together a selection of the most popular rolls and sheets for you to choose from, with total peace of mind for excellent print results.
Most of the rolls we suggest for the Canon iPF670 printer are supplied on a 2 inch core (50mm) (this is the tube in the centre of the paper roll which slides onto the printer spindle) – cores come in two standard sizes 50mm (2″) and 76mm (3″) and the Canon iPF670 can handle both 2 and 3 inch cores – just use the core adaptors that come with the printer to use the larger 3 inch core rolls.
Our iPF670 paper range should give you a paper product that is suitable for any of your print jobs. Our most popular papers are:
- 80gsm Uncoated Paper – basic line drawings
- 90gsm Uncoated Paper – slightly heavier for in house line drawings maybe with a bit of colour or the odd fill
- 112gsm Tracing Paper – where translucent prints are needed for overlays
- 110 micron Double Matt Film – a polyester translucent tracing film with water resistance and anti-rip robustness
- 90gsm Matt Coated Paper – great budget roll for smart plans
- 100gsm Matt Coated Paper – perfectly smooth for that higher quality presentation feel when showing clients your plans and layouts
- 120gsm Matt Coated Paper – a heavier feel for smarter prints or 3D renders – great for portfolios or when the prints might be handled more often
- 165gsm Matt Coated Paper – smart poster paper with a robust feel, capable of handling heavy inks loads for full coverage and images
- 180gsm Matt Coated Paper – same as the 165gsm but some customers prefer the specific 180gsm weight
- 190gsm Satin Photo Paper – a lovely sheened surface without too much glare – great for wall posters – the sharpest most vivid colours and a really professional result
- 190gsm Gloss Photo Paper – same as the Satin but this one has a very high gloss surface
- 260gsm Satin Photo Paper – the heavier version of satin photo which is popular for higher end images
What Paper sizes fit the Canon iPF670 Printer…?
The iPF670 is an A1 size (24″) floorstanding printer, one of the smallest A1 printers in the Canon imagePROGRAF wide format range. It can take rolls up to 24″ wide / 610mm and up to 90mt long (15cms diameter). We do have customers using 150mt length rolls in the 80gsm papers, but Canon recommend 90mt to be the longest – this is likely due to the physical weight of the roll on the spindle which needs to be turned to feed by the motor. The Canon iPF670 can also handle sheets – these need to be loaded individually. Here is an overview of the standard sizes of wide format paper rolls and sheets and the size of prints you can use them for. Sizing varies between traditional CAD sizing where true ISO sheet size is required from rolls and graphics sizing which is almost always oversized. Where a roll accommodates 2 sizes you can print both by simply turning your print to landscape.
