Great paper

I love using this pack of paper. I am a college instructor and often use colored paper for easy-to-spot and keep-up-with handouts. This pastel selection of paper does the trick. I like the colors because each shade takes printer ink easily. I have purchased this particular product for years and have never had a problem with legibility or bleed through to the back. The sheets go through printers easily too. Never a paper jam which I appreciate. When you are in a hurry you want good clean copies in a flash. This product does it without any problems.
We have been buying the Staples Goldenrod paper for many years now. We like it for various reasons but especially for its bright stand-out color. We use it on documents that we want people to notice for example forms that we want to be filled out and returned back to us.. It is easy to find a goldenrod piece of paper even if you have a lot of miscellaneous papers on your desk. As far as ease of use in our copy machine we don't get any jams so that makes our time more productive and less stressful.
This paper is as good as any brand I have ever tried but it costs less than the other brands. The paper quality and the color are both excellent. I use a lot of color paper and have tried other brands because it makes the pages stand out. It is much simpler to refer to the "gold sheet" or the "green sheet" etc. rather than to have everyone hunting through papers to find a particular title. People don't lose track of what I give them when it's on a color that catches their eye. It seems wasteful to buy other brands when they aren't any better than the Staples brand.
Very nice color of yellow. We use it for labeling things. It stands out without screaming or making sick. I was very happy with the price and the weight of the paper as well and it runs smoothly through the printer and copier without picking up multiple sheets.
This is a good choice for paper if you are shopping for a good quality but not a card stock paper for general use. I use it for a Newsletter to use in Church. It is not too thin to be durable yet it is not too thick to fold or to be able to use in a typical and average every day use type of copier in church. It holds the color well and does not run or smear the ink when typed on. It is affordable and in fact is cheaper than the paper that Sam's store carries. This paper comes in lots of ranges of colors.
