Accent 121962R Bright Opaque Cardstock Reviews Summary

Print Quality

Pros:

• "Super crisp and bright. Great weight. Makes laser print pop off page."
• "Printing on this paper with a color laserjet looks very nice, colors come out rich looking, and the cards look great."
• "This paper is great! Super smooth, good weight/thickness (feels like an average business card). Takes printer ink really well."
• "Very nice paper. Super smooth and bright. Goes through my printer easily and the brightness allows the ink colour to really pop!"
• "It's nice, bright white, prints very well, beautiful smooth surface on both sides AND scores and folds fantastic, without cracking."
• "This paper was wonderful. Smooth, bright white, printed perfectly with our laser printer, nice and heavy stock."
• "The cardstock is a nice bright white and they both cut beautifully with my Silhouette Cameo."

Cons:

• "Not good for at home printing - they'll suck up a lot of ink and look really faded."
• "So, I purchased the smooth 65lb cardstock and my prints on my Epson ecotank were coming out... let's say not vibrant, almost muted."
• "You don't want to print photos or anything on this paper it will look washed out (with inkjet anyway)."
• "I bought this for printing greeting cards. The papers are hard, thick enough for cards and have a very smooth finish. However, even with my laser printer, my greeting cards turn out to be faded and smooched, the ink can come off the paper."
• "The paper absorbs too much ink. If you are doing text based documents, then this will work fine, but if you want your images sharp, crips with high fidelity, this does not work very well for that."
• "While the thickness was perfect and the paper's texture nice, my prints turned out very faded."
• "Well packaged, no bent corners as others have reported, but prints are dull. Colors are muted."

• "Received cardstock when stated. Boxed really well."

Cons:

• "The paper arrived opened at one end as seen in the photo."
• "All of the 8 reams I purchased were damaged on the outside."
• "Amazon’s poor packaging which was a plastic bag! means there were a few bent corners."
• "The box was very damaged and paper was falling out the side of the box when it arrived."
• "The package came opened inside the box. The sheets are thick but now I doubt that I received the complete no. of sheets since the package was opened."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "It's a GREAT deal and will buy again when I run out!"
• "The price is perfect for my budget."
• "They are a nice more affordable alternative to the Neenah Solar White cardstocks."
• "This is really good quality card for the price. I've used the more expensive brand of card for card making, and this one takes ink blending and copic coloring as well as the more expensive card."
• "It's a fantastic price and a fantastic quality!"
• "It’s a good price for the quality and quantity as well."

Cons:

• "The only really disappointing part was that the price dropped from $21 to $15 just days after I received it."
• "Amazing cardstock but why is the price so high all of the sudden? It is now over double what I typically pay for."
• "FOR $10.05, WHAT I PAID ONE MONTH AGO, IT IS A GREAT PRODUCT. FOR $18 ONE MONTH LATER, IT IS A PRODUCT I WILL NEVER ORDER AGAIN."
• "Paper is awesome and super smooth.. Cut well and is just a beautiful item..However was going to buy again, but I see that the price has almost doubled, so I will be going else where to buy paper instead."
• "The paper got to me in terrible condition wouldn't buy from this seller again unless you don't mind having older so damaged but some of the sheets are good I'll have to keep cause of deadline .......please think twice before ordering from them"
• "The paper is ok and is as advertised but don't expect a complete shipment. Most if not all of your purchased product will be damaged during shipping caused by very poor packaging."
• "The product looks ok, but packing was terrible."

Printer Compatibility

Pros:

• "Nice card stock. Works great with copic markers! the ink does soak through a little though."
• "Great for paper crafting. Heavier than some of the 110lb card stock I've purchased from other brands, but not as thick; which is a bonus = it's easier to work with and runs through my Brother printer well."
• "This card stock is bright and perfect for making homemade cards. Even strong enough for watercolor."
• "The card stock works great in my ink jet printer. They make my menus and brochures look professional."
• "I use this for my Christmas card/letter. I run it through a color laser printer and the quality is great."
• "Our HP Officejet 5255 printed on this paper with ease!"
• "This paper held up great in my canon printer at home."
