I'll have to own up to having a seven-year-old-cheap-when-it-was-bought-fax/copier. I'll also have to own up to meeting multiple small deadlines all the time, at the last minute. Finally, I'll have to admit to being my own office staff, including the copy boy and head secretary.

If, like me, you're finding doing it all by yourself a bit stressful, this can help.

After accidentally picking up a ream of this a few months ago, something amazing happened--no printer jams, no stuck faxes--everything was so much easier. Then, I read the label: 99.9% jam free.

The "jam free" promise is real. If your office depends on getting things out on time, this is absolutely the only paper to use.

This review is from: Hammermill Tidal MP 20 lb 8 1/2 x 11 Inch Paper, 92 Brightness, 5000 sheets (16200-8) (Office Product)

I ordered this paper because of the claim about being jam free, because of the good price, and because it came through Amazon. But when the paper arrived, it looked like the box had been tossed on my front steps from a passing plane. The box was had burst open, was dirty, and was spilling paper. Inside the box, the wrapping on each ream was broken and the top and bottom sheets had to be discarded. However, of the paper that I salvaged (well over 80%), it worked well, even in my oldest printer, the one that has started to jam on other paper. I didn't have time to send the box back for I had a project that I had to finish that day. Plus, sending things back is time consuming and even at a low hourly rate for my time, is seldom economically practical--certainly not on a box where I could use most of the paper.

I still have confidence in Amazon's ability and desire to do better, I've been buying from the company since the mid '90's with a very high level of satisfaction, so I'll probably try one more time and order this paper again, assuming it's still at a good price, and hope for the best.

Paper doesn't go bad if stored right. I looked for the best price per ream and bam, this was is. Thick paper with anti jam. Have been using it for a while now and no jams. I even gave a package to my 5 year old to use for coloring. So inexpensive how could I deny her.
