Perfect weight and worked well with my Epsom printer!
Although a bit larger than I had wanted, these cards were otherwise perfect for my needs.

Monthly Shut-In Cards using Avery 3265
Our church has a number of members that cannot attend our regular services. To keep in touch with them and make them feel that they're an active part of our congregation we send them monthly cards using Avery 3265 Greeting Card stock. During each month we take photos of members of the congregation participating in activities. Then at the end of the month we select the b...

Perfect solution
I needed to update the greeting inside some custom Christmas cards so an opaque label was needed. This label worked perfectly--fed smoothly and printed cleanly--in my laser printer and when applied totally obscured the original message in the card.

Paper Quality Decline
I ordered this product and the paper kept jamming in my printer. I definitely noticed a deterioration in the quality of the paper as many others have stated. I used this paper along with 3378, for years, but now, I need to look else where. Avery really does need to pay attention to its customers. Some corners you just don't cut in an attempt to save money. It's not wort...

Great
This is the second time I've purchased the greeting cards. I love convenience of not having to go out and search through a lot of cards in a store and the overall price.

Great value for DIY people
These cards really print nicely, even with an older ink-jet printer. Not many people make their own cards these days, but for those who do, these half-fold greeting cards perform as you would want AND as you would expect. For those who like to add a personal touch to their holiday or thank-you correspondence, this is an affordable option that provides great value for th...

QUALITY CHANGED
I was so sad. I used to use these all the time for my greeting cards and they now changed the quality so all of the colors are muted. It used to print so well and I have yet to find one just as nice. I am so sad!!

The quality of this product has been significantly dropped.
I’ve been using this inkjet paper for many years with great satisfaction. A recent version of this product (made in Mexico), however, shows a noticeable deterioration of its quality. I can no longer make nice and crispy pictures no matter how I change the printer setting.

change in quality
I purchased the matte white avery 8316 before and it printed on my HP 8740 printer excellent. Ordered the same again and it will not print. Jam the printer every time. The paper appear much thicker than my first box. So for that reason "I'm Out"
