After I have churned out unwanted pages from my inkjet printers I always turn them over and use them in my Laser printer for (in house use).

It helps reduce the amount of paper I have for shredding each week.
Maybe this will help someone with their waste paper mountain, I am on my second shredder so far.. ;)

On 80gm. Standard copier, inkjet printing on both sides is not practical because this type of paper is not heavy or opaque enough for colour prints.. ;)

I always write and print on both sides of the page. I keep a whole stack of prints I don't need anymore, so I can write or print at a later point. I'm using Double A paper which is pretty sturdy and suited well for double sided use.

I use PaperOne A4 80gsm (Here they do sell 100gsm but I see it's a little bit too thick, and expensive also.). Printing double-size with dye black ink and pigmented black ink. Cheated by set the color not purely black but 80% grey, and then go print. ;)

WHen using paper second time you risk to clog your print head by dust that is on the paper, same for laser you rish to scrach the drum. I would not risk it. Paper is cheap.
