Big docs without jamming.
My inkjet printer is aging nicely, although for automatic two-sided documents it sometimes starts to jam after 20-30 copies, depending on the paper quality. Staples’ Tru-Red Multipurpose sheets perform really well. The hefty weight and smooth finish give me two-sided printing without the headaches.

Never had to open a box of paper with tools!
It seems like Staples can't ship larger items well. This box came taped up, broken box, a hot mess. Last time is was salt for the lot. Has to be a better way. You're packages are being mutilated and it's not a good look.

Nice paper, good price
The 96 Brightness paper looks just a bit nicer than the 90 or 92. When the 96 is on sale it is time to buy a case.
