As I am researching and writing a book, I need to keep copious notes and also produce endless drafts. I find, therefore, the dependability of this product to be most important. Over the past two years I have not experienced one jam or similar happening due to paper irregularites.

I am older grad-student on a fixed income . I use a lot of paper due to being in school and for church. The quality of the paper is good but the price a little high when not on sale. I only purchased this product because the rebate appeared to be instant. The signs were misleading and made the price appear to be [$]per ream at time of check-out. I purchased four , good product , great price. At check-out it rang up at the regular price [$]. I learned from my sales slip that, I could only get my rebate back on three of the reams of paper. I would puchase this paper again, only if it were on sale or an instant rebate at check-out. Another store has a product that is of the same quality at a much better price. I have always purchased the house brands due them being of good quality and price. Staples is a good store but a little high with their prices and misleading with signs near the product display . I will recommend this to a friend or buy again if on sale or an instant rebate at check-out. I know now to read the fine print on the signs near the display.

    Comments about Staples� Multipurpose Paper, 8 1/2" x 11", Ream:

    It is a paper at low cost with quality the same as the expensive paper that You can buy the name brand. I am a chemist and I check the chemical nature of this paper and find out almost all the papers are produced by a few companies and sold to different suppliers and carried different brand name. I can only find small difference in fiber content, but less bleaching agent used. I use this paper for personal as well as business use. I highly recommended this paper to my friends, relatives and co-workers.

              Is this 20 lb weight of paper a good weight for homemade cards ? Or what should I use, instead?

              • A:

                I prefer the heavier paper (24 pound) but this paper's weight (20 pound) will do if you are in a pinch. I don't want to sound like a paper snob but I really prefer printing things I want on 24 pound and things I don't care about on 20 pound. You really can feel the difference. Good luck.

                Answered on 2/23/2013 by Rx Guy from Jackson, NJ
              • A:

                I would say no. The 20 lb paper weight is the most common paper weight. This is what most printers use. Your average letter or billing statement would be printed on 20 lb paper. I would look for something in the 70 lb to 100 lb weights. Your average business card is printed on 90 lb paper.

                When you encounter a problem locating an item or are not sure if it exists, you can go on here and use the chat box or call the toll free number. I think there is also an e-mail option so you are covered in many ways. It might take a few days by the non-phone methods so calling might be the best option (or chat).

                Do a search on 513096. The only reason I know this is because I purchased a case at the store last year and used the box code to find it on the web site.

                When you enter your rebate info, you only have to do 1 entry even if you had multiple items. Staples checks your receipt (online) and automatically processes all rebates with that one entry. Gotta love it!
