I am so glad that Staples offers this product! No one else has a 100% recycled paper -- some have 30% or 50%, but yours is unique. And the print quality is excellent -- no fuzzy letters, no bleeding through to the opposite side. I try very hard to buy environmentally friendly and "sustainable industry" type products, and I've told all my like-minded friends about your paper. PLEASE keep this product in your line! (The only thing I don't understand is why it is packaged in a nasty plastic wrapping.)

This is the first time I've tried a 100% recycled paper product, so perhaps my expectations are out of line. I'm getting paper jams at about every 5 sheets through. I've not had this problem with other paper types, including those with less recycled content. The waste generated from pulling jammed, rolled sheets out of the printer is not offsetting the environmental goodness that drove my purchase. I won't be buying this paper again, and I may offer up my spare ream to Freecycle just to rid myself of the frustration.

          Comments about Staples� 100% Recycled Multipurpose Paper, Ream:

          Don't use this paper for business. I was embarrassed to send client statements printed on this paper. The 100% recycled paper claims to be just as good, but it isn't. The 100% recycled paper is decidedly an off-white color compared to the Staples brand 50% recycled multipurpose paper. The 100% recycled paper has a rougher finish than the 50% recycled paper. When I was folding the 100% recycled paper to put into an envelope, I always felt like I was going to get a paper cut. At least it didn't jam in my laser printer. I won't buy this product again.

            Very nice paper, a little heavier & nicer than the standard multipurpose paper. It works especially well for duplex printing, so you can save paper, too. It's acid-free, so good for archival work. I bought it because it uses recycled content so was very pleased to find the better quality.It is definitely worth the slightly higher price.

              Good afternoon,
              I was wondering if this product could be used to create in-house brochures. Is it thick enough? Does it bleed through? Please let me know if there is a product that is 100% recycled that would be better for my purpose.

              • A:

                It would depend on the type of brochure you are looking to make. Most users would consider this product a good choice at 24 lbs to use for a brochure, however it's not coated, so two-sided inkjet printing would bleed. Sorry but Staples doesn't stock any copy paper that would be a better choice.

              I was just in my local staples and they have this paper on clearance. Whaa? Is it being discontinued? Look at 100+ positive reviews. This paper is my paper of choice, and if I can't get 24 lb / 100% recycled paper from Staples, I'll get it elsewhere.
