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.)
