This is the second time I have purchased Staples brand Multipurpose Paper for use at work. The paper is smooth free of imperfections and bright. While it is not quite as smooth or bright as the Hammermill Copy Plus paper I have used in the past I can only tell the difference when they are compared side by side. I have not had any trouble with the Staples Multipurpose Paper feeding through any of our copiers or printers. The paper feeds smoothly without sticking together or leaving behind paper "fuzz." Considering the cost difference between the Staples brand and Hammermill brand paper I think the Staples Brand Multipurpose Paper to be the smarter purchase.
The carton was all taped up. I was afraid to open it thinking that the copy paper was mangled. Actually the paper was ok and undamaged but the ends of 9 of the 10 individual reams were partially shredded making taking out each ream from the box meant having to be very careful that the copy paper wouldn't fall out. I have never had this happen before either with the Staples brand of paper or any other brand. I like to reuse the cartons but this one will have to be tossed due to all the tape. The delivery was on the correct date so I was happy about that. I usually buy the Hammerhill 10 pack when on sale.
Staples has asked me to review my purchase of Staples® Multipurpose Paper 8 1/2" x 11" Ream. Staples is very convenient to our home and when I need anything regarding office supplies I always go to Staples and most of the time I find what I need. So I needed paper and of course Staples has copy paper and I purchased Staples® Multipurpose Paper 8 1/2" x 11" Ream. I couldn't pass up the deal there was a rebate on the purchase and Staples® Multipurpose Paper 8 1/2" x 11" Ream has proven to be a very reliable grade of paper for all of my copying needs.
