    there's no such thing as a white lightwave.

    White light consists of all the colours of a rainbow

    What paper?  What are the rest of the surroundings?  The colour we see is the difference between the light coming from the paper and the ambient surroundings.  In a blue room ordinary paper will appear red/orange.  In a red room white paper will appear greenish blue.  Coloured paper will be different.
