I am a teacher and I use this paper all the time. All of my handouts for my students are created using colored paper. I believe it makes it easy for my students to find a particular paper at a given time. It also draws attention to the assignments and my students truly enjoy having their binders be so colorful. Unfortunately since my school district does not provide us with color paper I must buy it myself and therefore spend way too much money at Staples on this paper.
This paper is exactly right for printing text and photos that are enhanced by the pastel blue. I use a lot of it for handouts especially concerning water or sky. I have never had a problem with it feeding in the printer and I rely on it for adding color to a project without sacrificing clarity of text.
This lilac copy paper was perfect for a Lenten writing project we did in claaa. The paper suited the display wonderfully. It printed beautifully. A great colro - not too dark.
I used the pastel green paper to welcome spring and St. Patrick's day in my classroom. 8th graders always like something new and unusual so this helped to brighten up their day too. I buy colored paper monthly to run off our weekly checklist as a reminder to the students what to expect and what they have to do during the week. They get the checklist on Friday for the upcoming week. Everyday they check off work they have completed and at the end of the week all of their work is stapled to this sheet with their scores recorded and they can always go back by the color and the week to find their work.
I service six stores of a national chain in central Massachusetts every week. My job requires that I print out a call report for each job in each store. In most cases I have the same job in each store but each job in each store needs to be signed by store management. In order to keep the paperwork separate for each store I have assigned one color for each of my stores. This way in case the papers get mixed up I can quickly put each store's paperwork together by looking at the color. Since there are only five colors and I have six stores I use white for my sixth store.
