What a deal this was on the paper it was so cheap !!! Now if I can only figure out how to do the rebate thing The problem is that I am old and I have a hard time concentrating and understanding directions I think I have some rebate stuff her from last summer that I never did figure out how to do it you would think with how smart computers are that when we make a purchase and give them that little card the computer would just scan it and automatically send us the rebate. It does know everything about us I just don't understand why they have to make it so confusing.
I have used this Staples Multipurpose 8 1/2 x 11" Ream for some time. It works well with both single and double sided print. Picture illustrations work well on them. I have found the ink to dry fast and the sheets do not stick together coming out of the hopper. I did find my preference to be Staples brand over the other national brands. This paper is good enough to print resumes and other professional documents. I have stocked several reams at one time and have never had a problem with the quality of paper coming out of the last ream. I recommend this brand of computer paper.
I have never had a problem with either strength lint or ink absorption with the Staples brand Multipurpose Paper. I am likely to continue to purchase it.
We have been using this paper ever since Staples came to our little town. We found it is great for printing and copying. It is a little heavier than some copy paper so if you are planning on copying a lot of pages for a single file you may want to purchase Staples copy paper for that. What we like the most is that it is quite opaque so double sided copies present themselves well especially when printing photo graphics in color. You also can't beat the price especially when Staples Rewards build up.
I purchased this ream of paper due to a coupon I received from Staples. I use this paper all the time anyway. So it was a win win proposition. This paper satisfies my needs of printing out receipts for storage at an economical price for me. It is sturdy paper and the bright white allows for a good contrast to the words your reading. Colors come out bright also and with some pictures you could actually use this paper instead of a photo paper. I did this on a project I worked on and no one knew the difference on the one picture that was posted with others.
