I have used about 10 cases ( 5 reams each) of the Staples copy paper- 8.5 X 11 copy paper. I am a small business owner and have a home office that I do bookkeeping and accounting for my customers. I like the cost of the Staples copy paper and the quality of the paper. It works good in all my printers and copier as well. I use it for any and all reports that I do and I even have a binding machine for long reports that I do. The binding machine has tiny little teeth that cuts the paper and this copy paper works great. I use this paper for all my office needs and reports.
I print loan closings usually mixed size (letter and legal) in same print run. The problem I have with this paper is excessive curling far more than any other brand I've used. I print in two locations one air-conditioned and one not and the curling problem is a lot worse without air-conditioning. I have to stand by the printing and periodically unload the output or the curling will cause the papers to catch and dump on the floor. Also this is 92 bright so a slight but noticeable difference from the usual 96 bright. Very noticeable in my mixed paper printing runs. I'll switch over to Staples Multipurpose (sku 562789) slightly more expensive but 96 bright and no curling problems. On the positive side I haven't have any jamming problems or wrinkled pages in the two + cases I've used.
This paper is a good all around paper for use in the home or office. It goes through the printer well. I had no problems using it in the copier- even when making greater than 500 copies at a time. The color quality is good
It was exactly what it said it was which is 11 x 17 copy paper. It wasn't coated or extra thick; it was plain copy paper which is just what the label said it was. So I was happy with it.
