This in-House Brand of Multipurpose Copy Paper from Staples has been Consistent in Quality and Brightness over the years. Earlier it used to be easily available in a Non-Punched Version and at a very economical cost. The Only Negative I can state is The Cost which has more than Doubled within the last 2 years.
As an avid journal writer and sometimes-college-student I've used this mid-quality paper for several years. It's not heavy weight or super durable but it's decent quality at an affordable price. And it works in printers and scanners. I use at least a ream per year of this paper just for writing my daily journal longhand. it takes roller ball ink well with only the occasional bleed through. Since I don't use any other kind of pen I can't speak to other inks. When I take the occasional college course I'm happy to use this paper for all note taking. The only concern that I have -- and as a journal writer it does matter -- is that I do not think that this paper is archival. For most people's applications that would never be a concern. But for me it would be reassuring to know that it won't turn brittle or yellow with age in coming decades. But hey it's not art paper and I'm not paying a high price for 100% cotton or linen paper!
