I recently tried this paper to use with my HP inkjet printer that is about two years old. I am very impressed. In fact, this multipurpose 108 brightness paper (yes, that's what they advertise, 108 brightness) by Epson gives you something to sing about! I use this paper with my inkjet printers; and I can use it to make signs to tape to my front door indicating to delivery people which doorbell to ring! Actually, it's good for just about anything I need to print with my inkjet printer, including intense colors or artwork from a webpage that I want to keep in printed form for my records. The paper may "buckle" ever so slightly if you have to print a large square, circle or rectangular shape in a single color; but this "buckling" isn't too noticeable.

In addition, this paper practically never jams in my printer at home. Nevertheless, I always fan the paper to make extra certain that it doesn't jam. After I fan the paper to make sure two pieces of paper aren't stuck to each other, then I place it in my inkjet printer tray.

Each page is a clean cut 8 ½ inches by 11 inches. Great! Although they don't say this, I would imagine that this paper can also be used in copiers, plain paper fax machine and maybe even in laser printers. If you want to use this paper with laser printers, print out a test page or two before you buy several reams.

This paper never "goes stale," so stock up on it if you can catch a sale on it. As of this writing, the Amazon price seems a bit high so check with Amazon to make sure that the above price is correct.

In any event, this is excellent paper; and I highly recommend this product.

This paper is really not worth its price. I fail to see anything even remotely special about its brightness, weight, or overall quality.
For important printouts I use the Epson High Quality Ink Jet Paper (sold in packs of 100 sheets), which is pretty much pure perfection. This "bright white" paper would not be good enough (by my standards, anyway) to use for a resume, for instance - there are too many imperfections in the paper itself (like, specks of stuff in it).
We used to get a low-end Quill brand at the office, and I think *their* paper quality was more consistent.
Also, it wasn't packaged tightly enough - quite a few pages got crumpled around the corners because of that, and the boxes themselves were ripped around the corners.

I ordered this paper advertised as Bright White Paper. Unfortunately I did not look for the numerical brightness rating before ordering. There is none, not on the site, not on the box. The reason for this is that the paper is not bright at all. Strictly false advertising. The package even looks like substitute paper was put into the box. This paper is dingy which makes prints look dingy.

There's no reason to order this paper when you can get comparable paper delivered from Staples or Office Depot at a fraction of the price. Also, after making the switch to that generic paper, I've experienced fewer jams on my inkjet printer.

Customer Buzz
When I received this package I realized the box was missing its top. As I looked over the packaging I realized the box was a older Epson paper box, and the paper inside was not even close to the quality of Epson Premium White Paper (I had another real box to compare it to).

Someone had just taken cheap plain printer paper and placed it in a opened box and passed it off as Epson.

The Epson Premium Bright paper is a nice, bright white paper; however, it's just to thick for most ink jet printers and causes horrible paper jams. I actually returned a Brother All in one ink jet printer, because it would jam on every sheet. My new HP J6450 also jammed on this paper. I'd go with a lighter weight paper, otherwise you maybe pulling pieces of it from inside your printer.

I purchased this paper for everyday use because it was available on Amazon Prime. Now, I know why it was on Prime - inferior quality and high mark up. This Epson paper is more of the $4.99 quality not $8.99. Print on this paper is more gray than black and letters are "fuzzy" and not crisp. This is evident on both Everyday and Normal settings on my HP Inkjet printer. One could NOT use this paper for anything formal or important. Faxing anything printed on this paper results in very poor fax quality for the receivers. I compared it to two other everyday papers I use and it was the worst of all by far. HP Multipurpose paper (20 lb.) is much better by far AND less expensive. IMB Ultimate Inkjet paper (24 lb.) is top-of-the-line for everyday use but its availability is limited. The Epson paper was the least "white" compared to the other papers referenced above and the packaging has no Brightness rating on the box. Like noted by other reviewers Amazon packaging was poor resulting in the paper covering being torn and the corners of the paper being bent and creased. This was evident on BOTH packages of paper that I purchased. If you need paper a trip to the store for a different brand of paper is much better than Amazon Prime free delivery. You will pay double the price and get poor quality with this Epson paper!

I am by far an expert on computer paper, but this paper definately suits my families needs. I would recommend this paper to anyone who is seeking a good quality paper at a fair price.

This is good paper. You can write things on it. You can put it in your printer or copier and create new documents or copies of old documents with it.

Its really good paper.

You can also use it to make paper airplanes. Or for garbage can basketball.

Note: I do not recommend wiping your buttocks with this paper. It's very scratchy.

Customer Buzz
The Amazon image of this paper indicates it is 108 brightness. When I received the paper, the Epson boxes had no brightness number on them at all. When I compared the paper brightness to some 104 that I had, I found that this paper is probably closer to a 97. I will certainly not buy it again and Amazon should remove the image from their site that shows it to be 108 brightness.
