Copy paper

We've had problems using this paper in the past but it seemed to work just fine this time. It's convenient being able to buy paper and ink all in the same location. Staples always has the product we're needing and the prices are definitely competitive.
The clerk pointed out that the "less white" paper was cheaper. I couldn't tell the difference so went ahead and got them for use in Daisy/Brownie Girl Scout troop. The girls like that it's bigger than the paper they usually have so it seems special. They like to write big without running out of room. They can do bigger pictures and crafts. We also make signs for meetings so we stay on track. . They are a good size to fold in 4ths to make greeting cards. This kind of paper was hard to find amid all the different copy papers on the back wall. Good that there was a helpful young man to help. He even put it in the cart.
I am a graphic artist and I use a lot of different papers. I also do the printing at my local church and this paper is very good to use. When I print I have a thing about colors and how vibrant and sharp the images turn out. I like my work to pop out at you and make you want to pick it up to read. This particular paper has a brightness to it that brings out the colors even more. I've used brighter papers but they are more expensive. Our church has a budget that I have to stay within and this paper gives me the look I want and its cost effective.
This is a very nice medium weight near bright white paper. We use this for al of our copying and are never disappointed. It creates very nice professional documents. Perfect for daily business or professional uses. We have been purchasing this paper for at least the past five years. It is a good value for the quality of paper in the case. If purchased in conjunction with some of the Staples Rewards offered it can be purchased at a greater savings and at a more reasonable price.
