This paper really was a great use for me. Great for eye brochures flyers or normal everyday use. Really catches the eye for prospective buyers on my hanging flyers. It worked great in my HP printer. I used it for black and colored printing. It comes in the standard packaging of 500 sheets in a reem and rated 20 lb. I usually prefer a heavier paper to print on but couldnt beat the amazing deal to try this paper. Its also good for the enviroment because its made from 30% recycled post consumer waste. I also liked the easy open tab which you dont get on regular paper reems. I also used it to organize my couponing for certain stores.
I was looking for a softer pastel pink that was darker than baby pink...well this paper was NOT pastel! It is a lot darker than shown and almost flourescent totally unusable.
I was so happy to find that Staples carried pastel copy paper...but what a disappointment when I received this order. This paper is MUCH darker than pastel green unfortunately my search continues for true pastel colour paper.
