Be Sure To Examine Stock Before Using—We endeavor to deliver orders carefully
checked and packed but errors do happen, both on our part and
our customers’, so we ask that careful examination be
made as to SIZE, WEIGHT, COLOR and QUALITY upon arrival of

perforated, or otherwise altered. Any
exceptions must be authorized by the company. Merchandise
accepted in return as an accommodation to the customer will be
assessed a 15% restocking charge.
Uniformity—Paper
manufacturing is not an exact science but is controlled by
varying conditions, hence different lots of the same paper may
vary slightly in color, finish and general appearance.
Therefore, colors and finishes cannot be guaranteed and
absolute uniformity should not be expected. For this reason, we
suggest that you inspect your order upon its arrival and report
any irregularities or faults within ten (10) days after
receipt.
Your inquiries are invited, and you may be
assured that we will endeavor to be worthy of your business.

Mill Claim Sampling Instructions—Every effort must be made to obtain a
representative sample of printed and unprinted paper. In cases
where a sample of satisfactory, as well as unsatisfactory paper
is available, it is highly desirable that it also be submitted
for comparative purposes. The following methods of sampling
unprinted papers are recommended.
a. Skids, Cases, Cartons: Take ten
CONSECUTIVE sheets from the original package as received from
the mill. These should be numbered consecutively in the order
in which they occurred in the package. The sample should be
taken from down in the package (at least one inch) to avoid the
effects of room humidity, dirt, etc. Identify top sheet of
sample by grade, basis weight, order number, skid,
case or carton number. Ship well packaged flat, or in mailing
tube.
CURL PROBLEMS—SEND 25 SHEETS MINIMUM
SIZE 17x22 PACKED FLAT IN WATERPROOF WRAP. IF CUT SIZES, SUPPLY
MINIMUM 100 SHEETS, 8-1/2x11.
b. Rolls: After soiled paper has been
stripped from roll, tear off six rounds of paper taking at
least a 14 inch strip across the width of the roll from each
round of paper. Identify by grade, basis weight, order number
and roll number. It is important that paper which has lost its
original finish through atmospheric exposure be removed before
sample is taken.
The following method of sampling printed
papers is recommended.
Obtain a sample of the printed sheet
showing the original defect, plus several consecutive samples
showing effect on printing thereafter. In the case of dirt
packing out, obtain sample of original defect and sufficient
unprinted paper to permit an examination of 200 sq. ft. of the
paper in question. Identify by grade, basis weight, order
number, skid, case, or carton number.
Claims for damaged blankets must be
accompanied by the damaged blanket and evidence of cause of
damage. If there is a build-up on blanket, remove with
cellophane tape and submit on glass or clear substance
(Acetate).
IMPORTANT—SHOULD
THE PRESSROOM CONTINUE TO RUN PROBLEM PAPERS WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL
FROM OUR PRINTING DEPARTMENT AND/OR THE VENDOR MILL, LIABILITY
MAY BE SERIOUSLY LIMITED.
Cutting Tolerances—Although JC Paper will endeavor to cut all
orders to exact measurements, the following practice for
cutting is now in effect.
Final sheet size ±1/32” from
exact measurement.
Parent sheet cut down with no waste
±1/16” from exact measurement.
