LOVE THE COLOR!
on March 12, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I always buy the house brand because it's cheaper and paper is paper; like gasoline. I love this color because it's not that STARK white that businesses use. Unfortunately they don't sell it by the case.

Be wary if color is important
on March 6, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I purchased this paper as part of a project to color-code required forms in my job. I was unpleasantly surprised to find a significant variation in the "Goldenrod" color between the two sides of the sheets. One side (let's call it the front) is indeed what one would expect goldenrod to be a deep rich yellow with a perceived gloss. The back of the sheet however is noticeably lighter and "flatter." This variation in a single ream begs the question of how much the color varies between lots. Granted one could be extremely careful to ensure that the "front" is used consistently but one shouldn't have to. While the paper is otherwise of good quality for the price and takes HP laser toner well in my opinion this obvious color variation in a system where color coding is intended to distinguish appropriate forms at a glance is a concern which should be considered when making a purchase. At the very least examine both sides in good lighting before choosing this product.

Great attention-getter for St. Paddy's
on March 6, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
Used this paper for our St. Paddy's day concert flyers. Great attention getting mechanism when stuffed into Senior's Meals on Wheels deliveries week before concert. Also durable enough to post on bulletin boards in public places for PR purposes. Created Rebate "postcard" coupons for Senior Services of Northern Kentucky that are being given out at 11 Senior Centers in a four county area. Would recco this Staples Green Ream Copy Paper to friends and organizations looking for a simple and inexpensive way to draw attention to their event promotiions.

Colorful paper
on March 6, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I have to say that I really liked this paper. The price was right and the colors are soft and easy on the eyes. If you are looking for vibrant paper this is not the product to purchase but if you are looking for a soft color palette then this is the right paper for you. I found that the ink dried fast on this paper and didn't smudge. The paper is a great thick quality and priced right. We used this paper for a science fair project and it looked great against the white background. It looked more mature then the bright neon colors used by other kids. I would buy this product again.

Excellent color drew attention
on March 5, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
Staples does all our copying work our banquet programs and business card and postage card advertising they have never left us down. All deliveries have been prompt. Nothing but positive comments when using gold paper. Comments drew attention to our (about our organization) page Lehigh Valley Sports Hall of Fame that recognizes athletes from the past while promoting future youth growth. Next paper Lehigh Valley Sports Hall of Fame will use is for patrons boosters and to secure ads. LVSHOF acknowledges student athletes who play Multi-Sports (2 or more) and H.S. & college scholar athletes

Pastel Colored Paper meets our needs!
on March 5, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
The pastel colored papers allow us to use different colors for different subjects. Each color comes out of the copier with sharp print and unwrinkled. It's easy to fold or cut to meet the size we need in our weekly bulletin.
