I don't waste this paper. If I am using it to 'test' something I can use the backside to 'test' something else and I don't see through the paper. It doesn't get hung up in the printer; sometimes will bring an extra page or two but fanning the paper solves that.
Doesn't seem to jam the printer. I've just started using this paper. I don't know about durability. Designed for everyday printing uses term papers homework. etc. It isn't fancy enough for a resume or suitable for photographs. Printouts seem very sharp and clear.
