Hi all,

I have a number of boxes of various old paper (for photocopying). They are really old - some 15 years, but also very, very old, like 40-50 years old that I got after my amateur photographer uncle died.

I guess they are useless for any photocopying.

However I hestitate to throw them away, simply because they still kind of look good with a nice surface and some weight to them.

Any suggestions on any particular use that you can make of them? (Except for using the boxes, which are nice.)

Do you know if they can be used for printing by an inkjet printer?

Thanks,
Lasse


Of they are dry and dust free, they should work for day to day printing just fine. The surface of papers for photocopying (laser printing) are what I use (the cheapest I can find) for day to day printing for my files, or letters either on my laser printers or my ink-jets.

And I have some even older than yours specialty papers for drafting, ledgers, etc, that I run through when I feel a need to goof. Never had a problem, as long as it not too thin (parchments) or no longer flat.
