I used this paper to produce covers "in a hurry" for a short-run booklet that would be used for a fundraiser the same day. The paper pulled perfectly through my HP LaserJet 2550N's manual feed tray. The HP has a setting for heavy glossy paper, which resulted in a very slow ride through the printer (approx 2 sheets per minute). But the end result was just what I was seeking.

Product worked about 50% of the time on my Samsung CLP510N Full Duplex, network, color laser printer. If color saturation was too strong (single color) and more than the thickness of a letter type (thin line) colors would not adhere to the paper and ruin pages with smudges. This was true for large bold black letters, blue letters, and red letters. Cost me more in toner lost on wasted pages than the package cost.
Comments about Staples® Color Laser Paper, Glossy, 8 1/2" x 11", 300/Pack:
I bought many reams of this paper because of the price, but I have been thoroughly impressed with the quality and would absolutely buy it again. Photos and newsletters are beautiful printed on this paper. Colors are vivid, opacity is excellent and the gloss is a nice soft-gloss. I just wish they offered it in 11" x 17". I do commercial short to medium run color digital printing on a Xerox Workcentre color laser printer.
Comments about Staples® Color Laser Paper, Glossy, 8 1/2" x 11", 300/Pack:
This is the cheapest two-sided glossy laser paper on the Internet. [...] I use it for 2-sided color printing of books. Photos look great for laser. Most major laser printers support this now. My HP Color Laserjet has a Glossy and a Heavy Gloss option. I read the manual, and this paper is exactly on the borderline of either mode. Works great. Gloss is not extremely noticeable, reminds me of an encyclopedia or school textbook page. Looks like [$] a ream for a lot less.

This product offers much-better-than-expected quality for a store-branded item. We were quite pleasantly surprised when our sales rep suggested we try this paper.
