About 10 years ago you could buy 3 hole punched paper where the holes were reinforced this way the paper didn't tear easy and stayed in the binder better. The last few years I haven't been able to find this type of 3 hole paper.
I use this paper to make copies of documents which will go into a three hole binder. It is worth the little extra cost to easily save documents in the binders. The documents are both for my use and that of my literacy student. I came upon this paper initially by accident but I am glad that I did.
The paper is good but I print screenplays and Staples does not sell the type of brads and washers that professional screenwriters use and that Hollywood expects.
This is an economical imaging paper with ColorLok technology to provide excellent ink jet and laser imaging. It's the best value for the price that I've seen - provides quality equivalent to big name brands at a bargain price.
