I have been over the years a STUBBORN individual happy with my status quo and have ALWAYS used 24lb copy paper brightest available so when I went out of my comfort zone I was extremely apprehensive that this paper wouldn't perform to my liking! Boy was I WRONG!!!! This is awesome paper with almost ALL my daily needs unless using special stock for my other projects. Grab a case and YOU WON'T GO WRONG!!!
The quality of the paper itself isexcellent but the paper wrapper that holds each ream together needs to be strengthened. When a case arrived at the store not only was the cardboard box somewhat damaged but all the wrappers were torn in one way or another. The same paper when it is sold in the store by individual ream is wrapped in durable plastic. These plastic wrappers should be used instead of paper when the paper is sold by the box.
This is the best all-around paper that I have been using on my HP Officejet printer. It has a 98 brightness rating and has a 22# weight. The best part is that I received my shipment the very next day. I normally shop in-store but when it comes to items that are heavy (as this full case is) I decided to try buying it on line. This worked well for me - having the case delivered to my front door.
we have converted all of our printing to use this paper: text numerical data layout drawings quotes and spreadsheets due to the quality of the printed output we get
I ordered this paper online and it was at my office the next afternoon - with FREE SHIPPING! It was a great value and will be purchasing the Stapes brand paper once again.
