Papers that we have printed out years ago are still clear and perfect just like the day that they were printed. We have had not one smear issue yet. As this is an Attorney office we cannot have smears on our documents and contracts that leave our office.
I purchased the Staples 8.5" x 11" Cpoy Paper 5-Ream case and it has worked out very well for our program. We use it not only for copy paper but also for art projects and drawing paper.
Staples copy paper has always worked well in all my copiers or printers. I have used it for years. It has never jammed on me. I can even let it sit in the all-in-one printer for extended periods of time and it never gets moisture built up in it. I never have to fan it after not using it for long periods. I buy 4 to 5 reams at a time. The paper doesn't yellow like some do after time. I go back in my files and the new pages look the same as the older ones. I like to purchase the paper when you can get a rebate back. But I like it so much I will buy it even when there is no rebate
