Good paper at a good price

I have never had a problem with either strength lint or ink absorption with the Staples brand Multipurpose Paper. I am likely to continue to purchase it.
We have been using this paper ever since Staples came to our little town. We found it is great for printing and copying. It is a little heavier than some copy paper so if you are planning on copying a lot of pages for a single file you may want to purchase Staples copy paper for that. What we like the most is that it is quite opaque so double sided copies present themselves well especially when printing photo graphics in color. You also can't beat the price especially when Staples Rewards build up.
I purchased this ream of paper due to a coupon I received from Staples. I use this paper all the time anyway. So it was a win win proposition. This paper satisfies my needs of printing out receipts for storage at an economical price for me. It is sturdy paper and the bright white allows for a good contrast to the words your reading. Colors come out bright also and with some pictures you could actually use this paper instead of a photo paper. I did this on a project I worked on and no one knew the difference on the one picture that was posted with others.
I find this paper to be ideally suited for repeated use in my printer and consistently excellent quality when either black alone or with color images . I have never had a paper jam caused by this product in now some 8 years of using it.Often I have printed on the back side of my emails with emails my wife gets from friends and I find that there hasn't been any bleed through from the other side no matter what printing is there. This makes for good economics and also allows excellent use of the product. Not often you find this in current products especially as consistently as this has been for my operations.
