Plotter paper BMG Q1412B — matte, 125 g/m², core Ø 50.8 mm, brightness >95, 3" core

BMG Q1412B plotter paper is a matte finish wide-format roll designed for technical drawings, CAD prints, posters and high-contrast graphics. With a paper weight of 125 g/m² and brightness greater than 95, the media delivers consistent ink absorption and a uniform matte surface that reduces reflections. The roll uses a 50.8 mm (3") core and is intended for indoor signage, presentations and other applications where a stable, medium-weight paper is required. This paper is recyclable and FSC™ certified, offering an economical option for frequently replaced prints and medium ink-density graphics.

Advantages

The matte surface minimizes glare and supports clear, legible line work and sharp detail in CAD and technical prints. At 125 g/m² the paper balances stiffness and flexibility, making it easy to handle on plotters while providing enough body for posters and mounting. High brightness (>95) enhances contrast for black-and-white drawings and color graphics. The 50.8 mm core diameter is compatible with standard wide-format plotters and roll holders. The recyclable, FSC™ certified construction supports responsible sourcing and easier end-of-life processing.

How to use

Install the roll on the plotter spindle using the 50.8 mm core, ensuring the media is correctly aligned and tensioned according to the printer manufacturer's instructions. Select a matte or plain paper media setting and set appropriate ink density for medium-coverage graphics to avoid over-saturation. For best results with technical linework, use standard draft or CAD print modes; for posters, use a higher resolution setting while monitoring ink coverage to maintain drying times and prevent cockling. Allow prints to dry fully before handling or mounting.

Usage recommendations

Store rolls flat or upright in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Use within the manufacturer's recommended shelf life for optimum print consistency. For long-term display, consider lamination or mounting to protect the matte surface and prevent fading in indoor environments.
