Xerox Recycled 003R91165 A4 210x297mm 80gsm 500sh/RM 5rm/BX, Off White

This is quite nice recycled paper. It is not pure bleached white. If you want to buy this for your business and you expect beautifully clear white crisp paper to give you the boldest, most elegant look, stop doing everything on a shoestring and dig deeper into your pockets. For everything.I would not have a problem sending business communications on this paper, and I would put a note at the bottom of each page to say that we use recycled paper, because I think that counts for a lot.I bought this paper to print a book that I will also bind by hand. It's not as thick as most book paper at 80gsm, but it's thick enough. I find myself bothered by the ultraviolet glow that gets reflected in the middles of pages of many modern books, and this paper does not create that effect.I scored Packaging 3 stars out of 5 because it was shipped with some parcel tape around the interface between lid and box, and therefore had no further protection from the elements. The bottom of the box was damp when it arrived, and the paper around the bottom ream was ripped. Fortunately the paper did not get wet.I scored this paper 1 star for Sheerness because it is paper, and not a port town in the SouthEast of England. Would have been a 0 if I could have given it 0.

This paper is good quality and things print well on it. However, it isn't bleached like usual paper, so it is a subtle beige in colour compared with the usual bright white. Great for printing rough work or trial copies of things. Great way of reducing waste.

It is nice that this is not contributing to loss of natural land or deforestation so I think everyone should use recycled printing paper. This is a lot of printing paper with a comparable price to traditional printing paper. I would recommend this to anyone. I find this paper easier to read than traditional printing paper however beware it has a very slight colour difference to traditional printing paper, also the texture is slightly different too normal printing paper.Having used this product for several months now, I find it more convenient than traditional paper. Firstly, the recycled paper is slightly thicker so when using a thick nibbed pen the ink does not go through to the other side of the sheet of paper (which does happen when using traditional paper). Secondly, The recycled paper is also slightly rougher, providing more friction, for people who struggle with writting neatly this can help.

A little slow to review this because I only opened it recently but I have to caution people if you're expecting white paper. This really is off-white and I would describe this more as grey paper than white. I must accept some responsibility for not seeing "off-white" when ordering and choosing the brand I had before. However be aware this isnt white paper and certainly not suitable for some business needs. I will look more closely next time.

Dreadful, Fair enough it is recycled (which is why we purchased the product). But it verges on beige/green! I will never buy it again

This paper is pretty good quality and value for money. If you are wanting 'traditional' white printer paper then don't bother with this as you will be disappointed. If you are not to worried about the paper shade then it's fine. I am a student with dyslexia so this paper is perfect as I can print lecture notes etc and not worry about the colour of ink etc.In terms of thickness it is not as thick as other papers but this does not affect the use as I have had in the past.More importantly it is also good for the environment as it is recycled.

of course i set the box aside while my printed went through its tray of paper and then when it ran out in the middle of printing a document i opened this box to find that the paper is not white. I know it says it is recycled but i hadnt expected it to be off-white. It is also very 'fibrous' - you can see the flecks of fibres and you cant use a gel pen or anything too inky on it.probably fine for kids to play with but not really professional looking for business use.

Was sceptical before use but despite the off white colour it's still bright but doesn't hurt one's eyes when reading off it for long periods. Good for two sided printing as very opaque. Would normally need to use 100gsm for this. Colours are unchanged. Value for money. Very Eco friendly as unbleached.
