We print our newsletter on this paper. It's good paper. It's consistent sheet after sheet (unlike some brands where you get several different kinds of paper in a single ream of their economy paper). It doesn't jam up the machine. It takes both ink and toner well. And the price is consistently the lowest of all the brands.
It is rare that I see special offers that really offer a great deal--but this time I did with Staples and I am pleased to report that I have an outstanding product at a sensational price. I watch all Staples offers as some of them are just what I need when I need them and I don't hesitate to take advantage of the specials when they come up. No I can't take advantage of every one--some are of items that I don't or cant' use--but every so often there is a great offer that comes along that is just impossible to avoid.
Didn't expect much for the price but paper is so thin that double-sided copies aren't possible. Also the shrink wrap was so poor that it damaged a couple dozen sheets of the top ream and I had to throw them away because they were too crinkled to run through the printer.
I purchase my limit of this product whenever Staples puts it on sale with a special rebate (final cost between $0.00 and $2.00) and donate it to various non-profits (free clinic offender re-entry schools etc.). Positives: 1. Getting 1000 sheets of multiple-use copy/print paper for @ $4.00 is hard to beat. 2. The five-ream packaging makes it easier to handle as it is half the weight of a full 10-ream case. Negatives: 1. This is 20# weight paper which is fine for low-speed low-production printing but may not function well in high-speed copiers and printers. This is a minor issue and as long as you know its limitations it's fine. 2. The shrink-wrapping around the reams can be so tight that it bends the corners of the reams on the top and bottom of the stack.
