The CG988A part number would be for the US 8.5"x11" paper size. Doesn't your side of the pond use the A4 size or something? I think your best bet would be to search using the keywords "HP Hewlett-Packard premium presentation paper glossy laser" without the quotes. Odds are that the A4 (or whatever) sized HP paper of that description would be the correct stuff. And it is WELL worth finding. I will never bother to use anything else. To avoid possible future paper formulation changes by HP (although the new part number performs just as well as the old one according to the database entry about the old type), I'm going to buy another 250 sheets even though I've used only a small fraction of the 250 I already have.
