The paper in and of itself is just fine. But Amazon didn't package it properly for shipment -- they used some tape to try to hold the paper box's lid down rather than securely fastening the lid to the box. All of the reams of paper were opened and some were damaged. From other reviews of Amazon's paper shipments, this seems to be standard practice. Be warned!

Terrible packaging. The box it came in looked completely beaten up. When I opened the lid, I noticed all the paper wrapping for each and every ream of paper was in tatters. The actual paper were dirty on the sides and the corners on many sheets were folded down. I will never buy paper from amazon again and you shouldn't either.

The paper works great in my Epson r1800 inkjet printer and also in my Samsung color laser printer. It's a great all around paper. The box was mangled but that's not the paper's fault. It was either shipping or Amazon that did it. So five stars for the product.

We bought this primarily for use in a Brother color laser printer. It works fine for that purpose.
We were disappointed to find that when it arrived, more than half of the wrapping on individual reams was seriously torn, compromising the protection of the paper from absorbing water from the air. It is too soon to say whether this will be a problem.

Just opened paper after having received it two and a half months ago. Much of the paper inside is damaged though the box appears to be fine. Would have selected returns but my two month window has expired. I now have $40 worth of water damaged paper and can do nothing but recycle it. Bummer!

I initially worried about ordering a whole case from Amazon and wondered how well it would survive shipping. You really can't risk a nice laser printer on questionable paper, so it could have been a huge mistake if the paper got dinged in transit, or absorbed moisture, or went stale as paper sometimes can. I'm still sorry for our wonderful UPS driver who had to wrestle this thing from her truck to our front door. But I have to tell you, the paper is terrific. It was a very good price (with Prime shipping), and this paper is just as good as our last purchase of high quality multi-purpose paper at a higher price at our local discount office supply store. Good choice -- I'm delighted to have given it a try and will undoubtedly reorder. Thanks again, Amazon! :)

Sold me paper then canceled order no reason given. This seller likes to waist your Time! Don't bother with this person!!!!! Go to staples and save a bundle over this price.
