Its white.

February 18, 2019

This paper is perfect for writing on, printing on, or making airplanes out of. Careful, it’s flammable. No more so then any other paper but if you’re looking to make a flame retardent suit to walk into a flaming building and rescue a loved one, this paper isn’t right for you. If you want to print stuff though, like a love poem you can pin to your landlords door so they can find it, realize you were meant to be together and forget about all that bothersome back rent you owe them, this paper is for you!

Awful

August 13, 2018

It appears at some point one of the reams was exposed to water, and it dried in a way that made many of the pages stick together (20+ pages at a time).
My printer is now broken because it tried to send through what it thought was one sheet, and 31 sheets were pulled through instead.
I've never had this issue with reamed paper before, ever. Especially boxed. I'm pretty pissed now I'll need a new printer, if you do buy, check EVERY single page in the ream for potential water damage that may cause pages to stick together.

Frequently jams in two-sided printing; has a slight yellowish whiteness.

March 9, 2019

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

Unlike other printer paper containing a fraction of recycled paper, the supposedly "99.99% jam-free" Great White 30 paper I received JAMS almost invariably during two sided printing (Samsung ML2850 laser), with the sheet jammed half way out after the page side flipping. The printer receives proper maintenance and cleaning of its rolling parts, and other brands of printer paper placed on its tray do not cause jamming. I sampled the three 500-sheet reams included in the box --which have the same batch code and sequential time stamps-- and sheets from all three reams cause the problem.

Further, rather than Great White ought to be called Great Yellowish White. The attached image compares one sheet of this product (left side) against one sheet of another brand of nearly the same price (Office 20 HP, right side) placed on a black surface, illuminated with light from a north-facing window slightly past noon -- the Hammermill sheet clearly looks more yellowish than the other sheet.

Great quality, super bright white paper I use in my inkjet printer

February 9, 2016

Size: 1 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

This is my go-to inkjet paper. It's the best quality for the price (and recycled, so I feel better about my purchase : ) Sometimes my Epson inkjet printer will paper jam with copy paper or thinner lower quality paper. I've learned it's better to get the good stuff. For business purposes, it's worth the better quality paper. Super bright white, great quality thickness, makes colors look more vivid and professional looking. Never paper jammed on me-

Great buy

February 12, 2019

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

I am in school and need paper due to a lot of documents I have to download for research. Three reams of paper came in this tiny box that did not take up a lot of room in my small office and fits easily underneath my bookcase for easy access. Price was good, quality of paper worked with my HP 4630 model and had no jamming issues. I also recycle the paper and have not had any issues with printing or having any thing jam in the process. Will order more again as my staple paper source.

Awesome Quality Paper! But ,,,,

November 15, 2018

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

First time I was disappointed, when I opened the box covering was ripped open, the pages were all over the place, torn and folded over About 1/4 of it. I was very upset, The paper is awesome, I would buy it again, sh@t happens sometimes, but like I said,, the 4 stars are for the quality, the one missing star is the disappointment, I’m not one to trash a quality product for a minor inconvenience.

A "case" which contains 3 reams.

November 22, 2019

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

The item description uses the terms "box" and "case." I believe the description to purposely be deceptively worded. Most of us are familiar with buying copy paper by the case or box, but the term "case" is typically used to refer to a box which contains 10 reams of paper. This paper does come in a box, but thst box is a miniature version, and contains only 3 reams of paper. Further down in the product description it refers to 3 items, but if you don't carefully read beyond the general heading and product description, you may be fooled into believing you will receive a standard 10 ream case. The lesson to be learned is to read the complete item description, and the posted reviews to be fully informed. The paper itself, to my eyes, is not a bright white. To me it has a faint yellowish tinge. The ream wrapper states that one side of the paper is more suitable for printing than the other, but it isn't clear to me which side is preferred, and I cannot tell by appearance or feel. There have been reviwers who received water damaged and/or torn paper. The 3 reams I received were intact and dry.

Careful ... this is NOT a 10 ream box of paper!

May 15, 2019

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

my fault for not realizing this was NOT a case of paper … I thought this really looked like a bargain … I searchef for a CASE of copy paper … this came up under the search mixed in with OTHER cased of paper. The photos sure don't give any clue that i's not a full case of paper - but only 1500 pages. Thus … this really isn't a good buy at all

Never again..... Missing and damaged reams..... No contact information to make it right. I ordered 12 reams, I got 11 and they were all opened and in a huge box. I think I will be able to use 10 of the reams. What a mess

Great paper: but it was packaged strange this time.

Size: 3 Reamstyle name: 8.5x11Verified Purchase

I like Hamnermill paper a little bit more than Amazon brand yet this time I was puzzled why they put a perfectly mailable box inside another box and nothing else was in it. Plus the box was partially open when I picked it up at the complex I live at. I'll either order this or the Amazon brand next time I need paper.
