Approx. 18 ounces is not accurate.

An efficient plant (in North America and Europe) uses 10 to 25 ton or m3 of water per ton of paper.

If your roll of paper weighs 1/2 a pound it takes 6 to 15 gallons of water; and we know that 6 (US) gallons is 768 ounces.

If no water is reused and/or re-circulated, plant may use as much as 300 - 400 ton or cubic meter of water to make one ton of paper.

A one pound roll of paper needs 300- 400 pounds of water (or 38 - 50 gallons).
