HP Papers | 8.5 x 11 Paper | Premium 32 lb | 1 Ream – 250 Sheets | 100 Bright | Made in USA – FSC Certified | 113500R

Contrasting it with 20lb 92 brightness copy paper from a local grocery store, this is nice paper even if it doesn’t look very bright in comparison. It’s thick enough to register as feeling premium without being so thick it’s difficult to handle. Great for important documents like résumés. You can see that the 20lb is see-through in the light, while the 32lb isn’t.I was concerned about its inkjet compatibility since some mentioned issues with that, but it worked well in my HP Envy Inspire. No feed issues and it didn’t get jammed.My only two complaints are the price and that it arrived partially opened with no protection. I didn’t have dinged corners but many reviews mention that or the packaging arriving completely torn open. Mine was shipped by itself in a box that almost perfectly fit it, so I’m guessing that’s why it arrived relatively intact. It’s also pretty pricey at roughly $0.05/page, on the higher end of the spectrum.If you don’t NEED 32lb, I’ve personally really liked the “Advantage Premium Bright Ink Jet and Laser Paper” from Costco. It’s 24lb and 97 brightness but I feel that it retains some of the same quality feeling as the thicker 32lb, and would be a more economical option for less important but still somewhat important documents (presentation handouts, vital forms, etc.) At only $0.02/page it’s a steal by comparison – again, as long as you don’t need 32lb specifically.PROS looks and feels nicer than the more standard 20lb office paper prints fine in my HP inkjet paper writes well, tried my Kakuno fountain pen on it as well as a gel pen and both didn’t have much if any feathering/bleedthrough (not a huge fountain pen nut so I can’t speak to whether this is actually a good paper for that purpose)CONS- arrives without protection/padding, so you may be gambling on damaged paper corners/packaging- expensive
