Best Quailty for a Good Price

I have found this paper does not jam like the brand I have used in the past. We switched to this several years ago and are very happy when it is on sale!
With two young children in the house both of whom love to use the computer and draw we go through a lot of paper. In an attempt to save money on some of our supplies we discovered the Staples brand paper a couple of years ago and decided to give it a try. We found the quality of the paper to be very good compared to other store brands. Having purchased more expensive paper in the past I can honestly say I have noticed no difference in the overall quality. It's well worth the money.
This is a very good quality paper for general purpose printing or copying. The paper's brightness (rated 96) is perfectly suited for laser as well as inkjet printing. The only complaint I have is that it curls too much which sometimes causes a paper jam in my printer's duplex (2-sided) mechanism. My work-around is to use a heavier grade paper (24-lb - this paper's rated at 20-lb) but only if I compromise on the brightness or pay a premium to have it all. All in all this is a quality product at a good value.
