Really like this paper for our general business use - and even for personal use. With 'general use paper' getting thinner & less white (generally - less quality) - this paper offered by Staples - really stands out. Try it (yes it costs more) - but you'll like it.
This high quality paper ream is great for presentations! I bought it to print my resume in them and it gives a professional bright and clean look to my resume. It does not bleed or see through. It looks very solid and smooth even with my ink jet Epson printer
I used to purchase the least expensive paper I could find. I figured paper was paper. Usually this was twenty pound paper. However it felt cheap. So now I buy the heavest paper I can get that is sold in 500 page reams. Typically this is 28 pound paper (the next heavier paper is sold in 300 page reams). I much perfer the thicker feel and strength of the heavier paper. As an added bonus I have never had a jam when using the heavier paper though I admit that jams with the twenty pound paper was very rare.
I love using this paper. I used to have problems with ink smudging after I applied a highlighter or after immediately picking up the paper as it printed. I do not have that problem anymore. I recommend it to any student who prints their outlines class notes etc and highlights a lot.
