This is a great all-purpose inkjet paper for everyday printing. It's thick and absorbent enough for my high-quality Brother MFC-440cn to print top-notch printouts. The only thing holding it back from being five stars isn't really the paper's fault. It arrived in a poorly packaged box and the paper packaging itself was torn, exposing the paper in many places. Fortunately, the paper escaped damage.

This paper is very thick and bright, and has less see-through than cheaper variations. For presentations and formal documents, this paper is ideal. For everyday printing, I'd choose the 22lb version.

What can I say. Nice white paper. Not being a paper aficionado, I was impressed with the sturdiness of the paper -- probably what the 24-lb refers to.

I self-published a book using Hammermill 24-lb bright white paper, and I can't say enough great things about it (the paper, not the book). The book is a transcription of my great-aunt's diaries from the 1880's and I scanned each yellowed page and printed it, with my transcription next to it. The ink is faded & the handwriting hard to decipher, which is why I typed out everything, but I wanted people to see how the actual diary pages looked. I needed a heavyweight paper to keep all that color ink from bleeding through on both sides, and Hammermill's did the trick! I used it for my Christmas letters, too, and printed photos on both sides of the paper. Now I use Hammermill for everything. It has a heavy, smooth feel to it which I really like, too. Now all other paper feels flimsy and rough to me. I've tried HP's 24-lb bright white paper and I like Hammermill's better.

I purchased this paper for double sided printing, and found too much see-through, despite the claims in its description.
