It may not be the very highest brightness paper but it does a perfectly good job. Anyone except someone except those expeecting thesis paper will be impressed.
We have tried many different manufacturers for our office paper. We are always looking for a great quality paper at an even better cost. You can't beat Staples brand paper for this. A must for any office!
This paper is by far the cheapest in the staples roughly six dollars. Some reams cost more than three times as much. I kind of hate myself for not buying paper with recycled fibers but the cost point can't be beat. This paper works. And it works every time. Aside from business letters I can't think of an application that requires that I spend more.
When I purchased the Staples 8.5" x 11" copy paper it was the best value for my money (sales and higher volume purchases might change that of course). We're almost through with the set and so far it hasn't shot my dog or caused the office to burn down; I've merely placed it into the printer's tray and it's dutifully served as a medium for ink and toner like any other sheet of copier paper. As far as I can tell the chief disadvantage of this product is that it comes in a plastic wrap rather than a cardboard carton so if you're in the habit of reusing cartons (whether for right or wrong) that might weigh on your consideration. On the other hand if you're the type who says they're going to reuse something and now you're on an episode of hoarders then the plastic wrap might be a blessing in disguise.
This paper is high quality and much less expensive than the competitor "brand name" paper. I also enjoyed the rebate on this product. What a great deal!!!
