So far so good I have not had any paper jams which is a major consideration when buying replacement copier paper especially when you buy it by the case. I have purchased the Staples multipurpose ppaper in the past but only 1 or 2 reims at a time. My fear is that if I don't use the paper fast enough it will degrade or become damp and jam. I actually don't need the multipurpose paper. The basic copy paper would be OK but I'm hoping the higher grade paper gives me a little more assurance that the paper won't fail when I'm in the middle of printing a project or report. I appreciate the opportunity to get a case of paper at a discount from time to time.
I use the 11" x 17" (aka tabloid sized) paper for plans. The tabloid sized paper attaches and fits nicely into folders suited for eight and one half by eleven inch folders or binders. I don't seem to experience any paper jamming or pull through of extra sheets in the large format printer. Probably one out of one hundred sheets I will get an extra sheet pulled through the printer. Other 11 x 17 papers it is more than that. The only issue that could be improved upon is the packaging. The plastic wrapper can't be recycled with paper. Staples should consider using paper packaging.
I have been using the Staples brand Multipurpose Paper for many years now. The quality is great and my household rarely get jams using this paper in our printer. My teenager uses it for all his school printing needs and doesn't have any issues. I have purchased other brands of multipurpose paper in the past but I really have not seen any difference between the quality of them and the Staples brand. This is much less expensive than the other brands so why keep paying more when you can get the same quality for less with the Staples brand? This is a great paper product that meets our everyday needs. I give it an A+
