Have been using for years

I use this paper for everything. It makes lovely copies, nice print outs from the web of materials I need in black & white and color, and handsome letters.

I used to love this product - and the 100% cotton version as well. It's beautiful, great weight-- I used to get a lot of compliments. But recent experiences have changed my mind. I've experienced laser print smearing issues with all my most recent purchases of Southworth Credential Collection products; they all smear - 100% cotton paper, 25% cotton paper, 100% cotton envelopes.

Looking for a better solution.

"Laser guaranteed"
I'm hoping to take them up on this guarantee.

I don't want things to smear - "because it's important.(r)"

Thanks

        This used to be the only bond paper we would buy (for several years - and a LOT of it!!). However, our last purchase the paper was no different than our copy paper and we returned it. What happened? I wrote to the company and they offered no consolation or explanation. Sad..

              I purchased this paper because it was nice looking and had a nice texture. It is somewhat lighter weight than I anticipated, but it is fine. I print my own letterhead and envelope return address and use it for business every day.

                            I would not suggest using this paper as a business card as it is only 20 lb (same as normal copy paper). I would suggest using a acid free card stock for your business cards, the following link will take you to everything we carry. http://tinyurl.com/4mscqvy

                            Not really, a print shop uses card stock cut to size by machine and much heavier.
