Woow this paper exceeded all my expectations. It was white it was an amazing 8 1/2 by 11 and it took both pen and pencil equally well. I love the new non-paper cut technology installed on this particular unit. Some other paper especially from Dunder-Miflin has claimed to have this technology but my scars prove differently I have not yet use this paper for paper mache but I have high hopes for it given its performance so far.
It's paper pure and simple. Purchased because there was a rebate promo; helped Staples reduce their inventory with purchase and took package with partially ripped outside covering!
