Paper Paper paper Oh My!

Upon entering Staples and experiencing the whoosh of cool that buffered the heat of the outside from the chilling temps inside my eyes were drawn to the geometrically stacked red cubes of paper. Could it be I thought to myself "Pure white paper beautifully shrink-wrapped in reams of five!" Atlas my search was over. I grabbed the package a bit heavy for my medium build biceps for sure but well enough for me to handle. Placing it on the counter I made my purchase and joyfully went home to load the printer drawer and stop the flashing "paper out" light. Ah the relief. I can print again! The paper was nice and smooth 92 bright although I thought perhaps some of the sheets were 90 or even 91. The letter sized paper was exactly 8.5" x 11" every sheet! The measurements were correct for both portrait and landscape printing and the thickness was just as I expected although I did tear a sheet with a bit less than 20 pounds or exertion. So overall I would say it was... white paper.
I like to buy the 5 ream case as it is easier for me to maneuver in and out of the car - they also give me flexibility as to where I store them. It is the same paper as in the full case and the price makes it acceptable to buy. I have not found any other supplier that provides this.
It has been a great experience using the Staples copy paper in my class room for over 20 years. The quality of my color reproduction-and ALSO the weight of the paper was extremely durable for the students and did not wrinkle easy and was sturdy enough to last during the many activities printed on front and back. The paper did not bleed with the use of front and back color. Students exchanged papers to discuss each other's problem solving activity . The exchange of papers for discussions etc. did not in any way destroy the paper because of its sturdiness . I do recommend the use of this paper for it's quality and durability to students. Respectfully Teacher of over 20 years.
This is the best paper that I have found for the price. There is always a sale on this and my representative from staples is very good about keeping me informed of paper sales. We are County Government so when we order we usually order anywhere from twenty to twenty-five cases at a time. I have never had any complaints from any of our offices. It is a very bright white paper and is a heavy paper weight. We could not be happier with this paper and we would definately recommend it to a friend.
This copy paper is the best copy paper. It is Staples brand however it has the same look and feel of high-end copy paper. I use it in all of my printers and it has never given me trouble. This is the paper you need for your home office whether business or personal.
