This 24# paper gives our everyday and presentation documents that extra something without being expensive. The added heft helps avoid shadowing on double-sided copies and has that nicer 'feel' for proposal materials. The brightness is just right as well. We use this as our everyday paper and won't go back to standard 20# stock.
This paper is okay - seems to print a bit blurry not crisp like good paper. Feel thick works well with magic markers! Probably wouldn't buy again but does work in a pinch.
YOU CAN'T TELL THIS IS RECYCLED PAPER. I MAKE CARDS AND SEND PICTURES IN THE MAIL WITH IT. IT WEIGHS LESS THAN PHOTO PAPER AND LETS MY FRIENDS AND RELATIVES SEE WHAT I AM DOING AND THEY DON'T NEED TO SAVE THE PICTURES.
I purchase the 50% Recycled Multipurpose Paper 8 1/2" x 11" Ream because it serves every office purpose. I am thrilled that I am utilizing a 50% recycled paper that makes beautiful copies for presentations and every day needs. Its great to know I am helping the environment and also purchasing a quality product that can be used for every day and also for presentations receipt copies cover sheets and many more uses. The product is also a less expensive option for the person looking to save money.
I've been buying this product for several years. Though it may cost a bit more than some of the fine papers offered by Staples we choose this one. It is a little thicker and doesn't jam the printer. The time and frustration we save more than makes up for a little additional cost. It is bright and white and looks great. We use it for all of our printing.
When I learned I needed to contact all three credit monitoring firms They each require printed proof of identity to lift a "fraud hold or freeze". I found I was out of paper. So during an obvious senior moment I went to the local Staples store and purchased a print and some Glossy Photo paper. Please note - - I forgot to get any plain paper for my printing needs and sure enough I did not realize it until I had returned home. I was ready to print out a few pictures I needed but was still missing paper for the documents. I went back to Staples & picked the Staples 81/2 X 11 ream off the shelf and payed for it.
