We purchased the Boise Fireworx 20lb Letter powder pink paper for flyers we were printing to advertise a new funding program called MyCAA for our distance learning training programs. The paper worked well in our high speed copier/printer and held both laser and inkjet inks well.
The paper color made a nice contrast with black and grayscale artwork and holds up well to sunlight, as far as we can tell.
The only drawback was it felt flimsier than other paper we use. As I mentioned earlier, it wasn't bad to the point of it jamming in the printing machines it was just the paper feel after it printed. It felt lighter than other flyers we've had.
Overall, this was a good paper with a nice hue and we will definitely purchase again.
We also tried the Boise Fireworx 20lb letter sized Pumpkin Glow paper for a mailer our school was sending to advertise a new tuition funding for our training programs. The paper has a very distinct hue, which is important for this project. The paper went through our high-speed copier/printer and held both laser and inkjet inks well. We ran heavy black content and it really popped when you opened the envelope. The pumpkin glow color didn't fade and seems to hold up well to sunlight, as far as we can tell.
We were impressed that it didn't jam at all in the printing machines. We also appreciated the recycled content.
Overall, this was a good paper with a great color. We will be purchasing the pumpkin glow again, especially for use in Autumn and Halloween.
