This is among the dullest thinnest and flimsiest papers I purchased in the last few years. Compared to other copy papers this paper appears more gray than white and the text appears unclear and 'soft'. I also noticed tiny brown flecks in each sheet of this paper and the brightness from package to package varies greatly but is generally very dull and gray compared to most other copy papers on the market. I had to fan this paper and feed it in my printer very very carefully or else it will jam very easily and/or pull 'doubles'. I also had to handle this paper with care since it tears and rips easily. The only suitable uses for this paper are as typing paper and as 'doodle paper' for children. There are better choices available for most copying and printing purposes.
