Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll — 10 Mil Heavyweight Wide-Format Paper for Signage, Posters, CAD and Presentations
Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is a professional 10 mil heavyweight coated bond paper engineered for wide-format aqueous inkjet and Latex printing. At 230 gsm — more than double the weight of standard bond paper — it handles heavy ink loads without cockling, waviness, or curling, delivering flat, professional output for POP/POS displays, tradeshow and event signage, architectural drawings, CAD and GIS documents, presentation graphics, and color proofing workflows. The smooth matte surface provides high color density, sharp image detail, and completely glare-free output suitable for any display environment.


Coated Bond Matte Paper vs RC Photo Paper — Which Do You Need?
| Property | Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte (this product) | RC Photo Paper (Glossy/Satin) |
|---|---|---|
| Base material | Coated bond paper | Resin Coated Paper (RC) |
| Weight | 230 gsm — heavyweight | 190–270 gsm |
| Surface | Smooth matte — non-reflective | Glossy or satin — reflective |
| Feel | Premium paper feel | Photo-like — stiffer, heavier |
| Glare | Zero — ideal under any lighting | Moderate to high |
| Ink load handling | Excellent — handles heavy coverage flat | Excellent — microporous coating |
| Best for | Signage, posters, CAD/GIS, proofing, presentations | Photo prints, fine art, portraits |
| Cost per sq ft | Lower — more economical | Higher |
| Back side | Plain paper — writable with pen/pencil | Coated — not writable |
Choose the Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte for professional-grade signage, poster production, technical documents, and presentations where cost efficiency and flat matte output matter. Choose RC photo paper when the premium photo-paper feel and high gloss or satin finish of photographic output are required.
Why 230 GSM Matters — The Heavyweight Difference
Standard wide-format bond papers run 75–120 gsm. They work for technical line drawings and drafts but cockle, wave, and curl under the heavy ink loads of full-color graphics, solid areas, and saturated infographics. Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper at 230 gsm delivers a fundamentally different result:
- Flat output on heavy coverage — solid color areas, dark backgrounds, and photo-rich graphics print flat without cockling
- Lays flat after printing — the heavier base resists the curl that lightweight papers develop on exit from the printer
- Professional weight and feel — 230 gsm gives finished prints a substantial quality that standard bond cannot achieve
- Sharp fine line detail — the matte coating holds fine lines, small text, and technical drawing detail without feathering
- Writable back — the plain paper reverse accepts pen, pencil, and marker for annotations and revision marks
Ideal Applications

What is Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll used for?
Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is a professional 10 mil heavyweight coated bond paper for wide-format aqueous inkjet and Latex printing. At 230 gsm — more than double the weight of standard bond paper — it is engineered for applications that need high color density, sharp detail, and a completely glare-free matte surface: POP and POS retail signage, tradeshow and event posters, architectural drawings, CAD and GIS documents, presentation graphics, exhibition displays, color proofing, and infographics. The heavyweight construction handles heavy ink loads flat without the cockling and waviness that standard bond papers develop under full-color wide-format output.
What is the difference between coated bond matte paper and RC photo paper?
Coated bond matte paper uses a plain paper base with a matte coating — it has the feel of a high-quality presentation paper and is designed for signage, posters, technical documents, and professional presentations. RC (Resin Coated) photo paper uses a polyethylene-coated base that gives it a stiffer, photo-like feel designed for photographic output, fine art, and portrait photography. Coated bond matte is significantly more economical per square foot than RC photo paper, making it the right choice for high-volume production printing where photo paper weight and feel aren’t required. If you’re printing for client photo delivery or fine art reproduction, choose RC. If you’re printing signage, posters, CAD drawings, or presentations, choose coated bond matte.
What wide-format printers are compatible with Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll?
Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is compatible with all major wide-format aqueous inkjet and Latex printers using pigment, dye, and Latex inks — including Epson SureColor T3470, T5470, T5770D, T7770D, P6570, P7570, P8570, P9570, and P20570; Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-2100, PRO-4100, PRO-6100, TM-200, TM-300, TM-305, TX-3100, TX-4100, GP-200, GP-300, GP-4000, and GP-6400; HP DesignJet T520, T525, T630, T650, T730, T830, T930, Z6, and Z9+; HP PageWide XL 4000, 5000, 6000, and 8000; and HP Latex 300, 310, 315, 330, 335, 360, 365, 370, and 375 series. ICC profiles available — contact Buffalo Imaging for a profile matched to your specific printer and RIP.
Why does 230 gsm coated bond paper produce better results than standard bond paper?
Standard wide-format bond papers run 75–120 gsm. They are fine for technical line drawings and draft output but cockle, wave, and curl under the heavy ink loads of full-color graphics, solid blocks of color, dark backgrounds, and saturated infographics. At 230 gsm, Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper is more than double the weight of standard bond and handles the heaviest ink coverage completely flat. The heavier base also resists curl after printing, gives finished prints a substantially more professional feel, and holds fine line detail more sharply. For any output that will be displayed, presented, or handed to a client, 230 gsm produces noticeably better results than standard bond at a fraction of the cost of RC photo paper.
What widths are available for Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll?
Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is available in five widths: 24 inches, 36 inches, 44 inches, 54 inches, and 60 inches. All rolls are 100 feet long. Select your width from the product dropdown before adding to cart. If you need a width not listed, contact Buffalo Imaging for availability.
Is Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper good for CAD and architectural drawings?
Yes — CAD, GIS, and architectural drawings are primary applications for this paper. The matte coating holds fine lines, small text, dimension annotations, and hatching patterns sharply without feathering or bleed. The 230 gsm weight handles large color coverage areas in color-coded CAD and GIS drawings without cockling. The plain paper back is writable with pen, pencil, and marker — useful for handwritten annotations and revision marks on architectural and engineering drawings. The glare-free matte surface makes drawings easy to read under the overhead lighting in offices and review rooms where documents are examined closely.
Can I use Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper with HP Latex printers?
Yes — Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is compatible with HP Latex printers. Use the Coated Paper or Heavy Coated media setting in your HP Latex printer driver or RIP for best results. If you experience print quality issues, contact Buffalo Imaging for printer-specific settings or an ICC profile matched to your HP Latex model.
Is the matte surface instant dry?
Yes. The matte coating on Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll is instant dry — prints exit the printer ready to handle, stack, roll, or cut with no smearing or offsetting. This is critical for high-volume production environments — signage shops, print services, architectural offices — where prints need to move directly from the printer into finishing or delivery workflows without a drying queue.
Can I write on the back of Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper?
Yes. Unlike RC photo paper which has a resin-coated back that resists writing, Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper has a plain paper back that accepts pen, pencil, marker, and stamp ink. This makes it practical for architectural and engineering documents where handwritten annotations, revision marks, and approval signatures are added to prints, and for presentation graphics where notes may be written on the reverse of printed pages.
What printer settings should I use for 10 mil coated bond matte paper?
For most wide-format aqueous inkjet printers, select Coated Paper, Heavyweight Coated, or Presentation Matte in your printer driver or RIP when printing on Buffalo Inkjet Coated Bond Matte Paper Roll. Avoid using Photo Paper settings which are tuned for RC paper substrates. For HP Latex printers, use a Coated Paper or Heavy Coated setting. For the most accurate color and the best ink density results, contact Buffalo Imaging for an ICC profile matched to your specific printer model and RIP software.
