It sounds like everyone has been getting different paper when they order this. Whatever I received is definitely glossy, but it's only as thick as regular copy paper... certainly not 80lb. cover stock. I was hoping to use it for brochures or something similar, but then I read reviews that said this paper can't be used for inkjet printers. Geez! That's the only printer I have. What the heck am I supposed to do with this now? I think the fact that it's only usable in laser printers should be noted somewhere in the description. I've never had this type of problem with anything from Amazon before. What a waste of money.

2 things:The paper quality is 4 stars. I am able to use it in my inkjet printer if I do the following:1. do NOT select any glossy paper setting, use the plain paper setting2. choose low ink setting (like "normal" quality instead of "best" quality)3. as pages come out of the printer, they are slightly wet in the high-ink areas. Catch them by hand and place them on a table. After about 2 minutes, they are dry.4. Wait like 10 minutes if you want to print the other side.I printed hundreds of color brochures with this paper on my inkjet using the above technique.Given that, i MUCH prefer the Hammermill glossy paper (Hammermill Color Laser Gloss 32lb). With the Hammermill paper and my inkjet, I do not have to catch every sheet by hand, but can let them stack up in the print-catcher. If I have a photo on the brochure I try to catch them as photos require alot of ink. Printing with the Hammermill paper is quicker for me. When my inkjet dies, I will get a color laser and then I can use up the rest of this paper...WHY TWO STARS? OMG, I ordered 5 reams of this stuff. The packing was HORRIBLE! All 5 reams had broken apart because they were placed loosely in an inadequate box. I opened the box and basically had 5 reams of LOOSE paper in a box! UGH, so frustrating. I live in Hawaii, so like hell I am going to ship this mess back.

This glossy card stock was exactly what I desired. I wanted to make professional-looking Christmas cards using my ink jet printer and a Cuttlebug machine. The weight of the card was perfect: stiff enough to be a real card, but not too stiff for folding or bending. It seems a lot like photo paper, only easier to handle. It isn't flimsy at all. From earlier reviews, I wasn't sure if my ink would smear or if there would not be enough of a gloss. The ink did not smear in my Canon ink jet printer. Instead, it looks crisp and flawless. It holds embosses beautifully. There is plenty of gloss to the paper as well. I am thoroughly satisfied.

I purchased this paper to make some signs. My laser printer could use 80lb. paper and I thought I could just drop by Staples and pick up a pack. When I discovered it was a special order item I turned to my old standby - Amazon. They had exactly what I needed and I knew with the Xerox brand it would be quality paper. It arrived so well packaged that you would never know it made the trip through the UPS system. The quality is great and the gloss is just enough to add a punch to your printing. After laminating, my signs were every bit a good as what a sign company would have charged me a lot more for.

The paper was shipped inside a larger cardboard box. The package of paper evidently bounced around during shipment and was broken open and scattered about when I opened the outer box. I tried to print glossy photos using my Brother HL-L8350CDW color laser printer. My first try, the toner adhered to the center of the sheet, but not the edges. Be sure that printer is set to GLOSSY paper. This fixed the problem. The print quality is good enough for home use. The toner tends to dull the finish of the paper, giving you more of a matte finish.

I received the cover stock paper and it's very good quality paper. I would recommend it. However, as for the description, The paper size needs to be indicated in the description. I thought I was ordering 11x17. I did a search for 11x17 text weight and cover weight paper and this item kept coming up along with other 11x17 paper selections. Please modify your descriptions to show exact paper sizes, so customers don't waste time selecting the wrong product. I'm keeping the paper because I like it and I can use it for another print job.I rate the item itself a 5. I rate the presentation and advertising of the Item a 2.

I gambled and bought this paper for use in an inkjet printer. (Brother MFC 490)Very pleased with the results. Black and color graphics really pop! Photos are ok, but my printer isn't great at them on any paper.Two cautions: The ink takes a few minutes to dry, but seems stable after that. Also, as a layman I would describe the paper as semi-gloss on the glossy side; it's not super shiny.Great paper for the price; my wife makes 2X2 posters/teaching aids for her classroom, and we have to keep costs way down. The Wausau Light Bright matte cardstock here on Amazon is an even less expensive option.

I had wanted a slightly heavier gloss cardstock than this. There is no weight listed in the descriptive information and so I assumed this was what I wanted. What I received was actually 80lb/210g weight gloss card, 250 sheets. It would be nice if that was listed in the product information directly. I can use this but the information up front would have been helpful.
