We use Staples pastel copy paper weekly for church bulletin announcements. We print on both sides without any bleed-through and it feeds equally well through a Xerox laser printer and a Riso inking system. It also feeds perfectly through the Pitney Bowes folding machine without a hiccup. I watch for it to go on sale and buy it in bulk.
I like to use different colors for different print jobs. It also makes it easier to designate a certain color for projects that you can find instantly.

This product gives you an assortment of colors in a single package without having to purchase a full ream. The colors are a pleasant mix. To get the mix you get only 400 sheets in the package rather than a full 500-sheet ream.
I'm in documents services. So dealing w/ white paper for business is a necessity but when it comes to my office . . . . I love color and my internal documents are in Color. This way I can tell what is leaving & what is staying in. This paper is good quality for my Laserjet Printers. I do recommend it.
Staples' Blue paper helped me to design an eye- catching flyer. My ad copy was in black ink but the blue background fit the product which was in blue. So using blue paper emphasized one feature of my product -- the color blue! With other papers in white I was able to quickly pull out the blue flyers and give them to the business show attendees. As for the product packaging I find the paper ream needs to be cut open. Ask a design engineer to make an easy perforated panel at the top. That way the blue paper can still be stored within the same container its sold in at Staples.
