Copier/printer paper, as well as many other types of paper, is made with OBAs (Optical Brightening Agents) that fluoresce when exposed to UV light. It's similar to the stuff used in laundry detergents to give "whiter whites". A small amount of UV output is found in most non-incandescent lighting sources as well as sunlight.
