Staples Pastel Colored Copy Papers are a great value for a ream of high-end copy and print paper. Staples pastels are packaged in plastic to minimize absorption of moisture during shipping and storage. Staples pastel reams are also well-trimmed. This attention to moisture control and consistent size provide jam-free copying and printing. The pastel colors are pleasant (not garish) lending them to a wide variety of uses at home for schools and in industry. I recently donated several reams of Staples pastel color paper to our local elementary school and the teachers were so excited!

I bought this paper from Staples and was not disappointed at all. Nor was I blown away. I actually got this paper for free since I bought it and then got a rebate for it so it was the perfect price for me. There were so many different colors of paper and since yellow is my favorite one I chose this one. This paper is ideal for making cards on. I make a card online and then print it out on this paper. It is thick but not too thick and thin but not too thin. AKA the perfect paper for what I need it for.
I used it to print up some flyers and had no problems using it in the printer. I used it with a Konica Minolta laser printer. I would definitely use this paper again if I have to print up flyers.
My kids often need to submit essays papers projects etc. for school. This colored paper adds a nice touch to the usual white paper or coloring/decorating with less fuss.
Not having to buy a full ream of color paper when only a few are needed and having several colors in one package is great. I am not stuck with 350 page of color paper that will be wasted. This paper is easy on the printer and have never had a jam from inconsistent quality.
The goldenrod Staples pastel colored 8 1/2 in. by 11 in. copy paper works well in ink-jet and laser printers as well we photocopy machines. It holds the ink well with no streaking. The paper is good for double-sided copies and the paper is durable enough so I can re-use the photocopies multiple times. This factor saves me time and paper (and money too). The Staples store brand compares favorably with the other name brands and is a little less expensive. I am happy with the product and highly recommend it.
