Hammermill Laser Paper

Excellent! My top 1 choice among papers. Even though it says it's Premium laser Printer Paper, I use it for my Epson EcoTank L5290 to print The Good and the Beautiful curriculum -Math, Language Arts, Science, and Handwriting. So crisp texts, no bleed through. No warping of paper I love it!

Good quality laser printer paper. Print quality is excellent. Very vibrant colors and text. I have never used Hammermill before. Works for me.

This is a review for: Hammermill Premium Laser Print Paper. Aaah...paper. I love it. I have color inkjet printers and I have a color laser printer and I love them and I love printing. Remember when inkjet paper was dedicated to inkjet inks? It really made a difference. Well....that is gone except for high-end specialty papers sold as inkjet. Well...maybe not. Maybe there really is a paper that is as good as the old dedicated inkjet paper. When I looked for the best I could find for my laser color printer, I wound up buying this Hammermill Premium Laser Print. To get it you've got to get all 3 of those words right and in the right order because there are other papers from Hammermill and from other companies who use all of those words but not in that order. That is confusing. I hate it but that's the way it is. This paper is great for the laser. The paper surface is really smooth so the melted toner lays a nice glossy image on the smooth paper. It looks great. It's not as good as a glossy presentation paper for laser but for a plain surface paper it is quite pleasing and I'm pretty proud to distribute things I print on this stuff. But !! I tried it in my inkjet printers. Wow! This stuff is better than any of the old so-called "inkjet" papers. I mean it seems to holds the ink near the top of the surface of the page like the old dedicated inkjet paper used to do and it really displays bright saturated colors and dark dense blacks. And it is just as water resistant as any other inkjet paper I have used. I love it. So, I printed on both sides. No appreciable bleed through. I can see through it if I shine light through it from behind but such is the case with all papers. Now, this Hammermill Premium Laser Print isn't going to perform exactly like dedicated inkjet matte specialty papers or dedicated inkjet glossy papers...but...it is so close to some of the matte papers, I'm truly favorably impressed. I don't bother buying any other paper. As long as Amazon contues to give a decent deal on this stuff, I can't see any reason to use anything else. So, nothing is really worth 5 stars in this mortal world, but, I did it anyway because I hope to coax Hammermill to leave good enough alone and keep this in the product lineup. (I swear it seems like everytime I come to depend on some product, there's a revamp at the whim of some new VP or something and everything degrades forcing me to scurry for an acceptable substitute at the last minute without warning.)

Great high quality paper, a must for a laser printer!

The paper is great quality, but the shipping box was torn and some of the reams were torn open as a result. Only a few of the sheets of paper were destroyed. That is the reason for there are only 4 stars.

This is a good, bright paper. The surface is more slick than most inkjet papers I've used but my printers do not have a problem with this. It's a good value and the only 3-hole paper I can find priced about the same as my regular papers—a major convenience. Thickness for 24 bond is not quite that of my other papers but it's not as thin as 22 so I have no problem. Letter size is accurate and easy to use. No jamming issue but my Brother printer can drop pages when it gets too warm so I do not let it print more than 150 pages at a time without a rest.

Picked up some of this because of the amazing price and I was running low at the time anyway. Glad I decided to go with the 5 ream case rather than just purchasing single reams... Purchasing by the case better ensures that you receive your paper in great condition, because we all know that carriers are necessarily treating your shipments with love and care.. The paper itself is the best laser printer paper I've used. I particularly like this paper because of the texture. It has a nice smooth, pleasant texture, one side being EVER so slightly more smoother/shiny than the other, which I load to print on as I like the presentation better on something that isnt dull matte white.. I would describe the texture a kin to something like, satin? Maybe? It's nice and smooth and when held up to the light you can see a bit of sheen... It also makes for really nice note taking paper as well, as the smooth paper gives a great surface for writing with most pens... Print quality on this paper is top notch and what you would come to expect from a quality manufacturer. Text is super crisp... Paper doesn't hold too bad of a bend when printed (we all know how laser printers can do that, some papers will hold the bend more so than others) and eventually, once it cools down, actually flattens out pretty good. Obviously it's never going to be PERFECTLY flat, but it isn't nearly as bad as some papers, especially when printing with regular ole general purpose paper or copy paper that's usually used in inkjets as well.... I would note that you really shouldn't use this paper in an inkjet printer. Obviously, it's for a laser printer. I've tried this stuff out in my inkjets and the results aren't great. Comes out kind of faded, if you will? Almost like the ink couldn't penetrate the paper. But then again, this is LASER printer paper, not inkjet, and that's what I use it for so I absolutely LOVE IT.... Trust me, pick some of this up you wont be disappointed.

Great price for a high quality paper, and great customer service.

Hammermill Premium Laser Print is an excellent paper. It‘s smoothness puts it above all others for producing quality work on laser printers as well as on spirit duplicators. Good selection of different weights, too. I only wish the manufacturer would make a 20 lb. version of this paper.

This paper is so smooth and perfect!

I bought this paper to print homeschool materials (including Gather’Round), and I love, love, love it!! If paper can be beautiful, than this paper is that. The tactile feel of the paper is great, and I love that it is just a tad heavier than what I’ve used in the past (I typically buy the cheapest 20lb paper I can find, I’ve even used 16lb Eco friendly paper which worked fine but was super thin). I thought this paper may handle all the colorful illustrations well that is contained within the Gather’Round curriculum and it definitely did. And for 99% of what I was printing, it handled double sided printing just fine (it wasn’t great for any graph and table type worksheets due to being able to see faint lines from the reverse side). I typically don’t love the print quality of my printer, but this paper helped make up for that fact. Because the paper appeared to have a really faint sheen I was initially worried writing on it, but I tried a pencil and a few pens and it worked well with no smudging. I’m not sure if I would use it for regular, daily printing as it feels a little too nice. All around I’m super happy.

This paper is much better quality than other print paper I’ve used. The paper actually works better in my printer too

Annoying the paper I received had the packaging ripped open and half the paper removed! Strange, as the delivery box was not tampered with. Thankfully customer services sorted this out, but another reviewer said the same thing happened to their order too.
