How is the paper quality? Does the thermal paper feel like regular paper or does it feel like a cheap receipt? Does the paper fade over time?

The paper is not as heavy as regular printer paper but not as flimsy as receipt paper. It's specially coated on one side (the side you print on). The printing is a bit lighter than laserjet printing but certainly satisfactory. It may fade just a little bit after over a year but barely noticeable. For darker printing, print using the power adapter (gives it more juice) rather than relying on the internal printer battery. The greatest benefit is the convenience of not having to carry any ink print cartridges that may dry up or malfunction. I'll give the paper about 8 out of 10 rating. I've been using this solution for at least 5 years or more.

I have two of these and the first one I got was amazing, smooth, and felt great to write with. I use it for my daily journal. The second one I got was oddly clumpy at first but got better after a bit of use.

It is a very light weight paper. I have some sleeves that are of a heavier weight, but these were adequate for my needs.

Kristi- I seem to get invited to respond to anything involving this product... and I know nothing beyond the facts: It was as advertised. It arrived a day early. I think it was slightly heavier than the paper used in our newspaper. It was packaged in two 25# "folds." It was clean.I can only hope it was mostly made of recycled paper - but I don't remember any such information.

I believe they are making a comparison to the 'feel of the material'. It feels similar, and although the quality is probably far from the same, I have had my sheets for 12 months and so far so good (no tears or obvious wear).

It is the paper describing the item. I was disappointed in the quality of the finish on this item ~ some gobs/drips of coating and some gaps too. Not as heavy os the previous one we had.

There are different options available for the quality of scan. (24bit, color, 8bit grey and Black\White) You have options in the software also for home\office\pro mode which allow more granularity to how the image is adjusted (I have used this numerous times to keep a copy of my receipts from stores such as Home Depot that use thermal paper that "disappear" with age\heat. I had numerous HP all-in-ones and hated them all. I love this one. Only problem is that if you set it up on Network and USB, USB wont work if you are VPN'd into a corporate network. It acts like it cant see it, even though there is a USB connection available.

It feels heavier than regular paper, but not as heavy as a birthday card I have on hand (if that is what you mean by cardstock). I use it to print photos all the time in my printer and have no problem with it.

The paper is durable enough that flipping back and forth through the months, if done with some care, it will not tear. Also the paper is thick enough that it does not show through to the month following. Not card stock but a better quality printing paper. IMHO

I live in Tucson, came from Phoenix, so I feel you! I think it's really thin and light without feeling cheap. Right now what's causing heat for me is the mattress protector and my comforter. I think the sheets themselves are breathable and don't hold much heat.

The surface is a little grainy but I wright on it all the time, I guess it just depends on if you want a very smooth written paper. Also you could just put something over it to make it smoother, I use the back of my legal pad and that works great.

Not sure, I got it for my son and on no time there was a hole in it. Cheaply made... I was under the impression it was decent fabric but no, it feels like paper.

Yes, it's a good quality paper. I did find if you try to wet sand with it the paper will not stick just go dry and it stays clean longer than other brands.

It is not glossy. It is regular paper and somewhat heavyweight (not flimsy.)

Part of that is warm up, but I have had no complaints with the speed it prints. I haven't personally timed the pages, but it feels about right or even faster.

It is smoother than heavier weight drawing papers, but it has more tooth than a standard computer paper. It may feel "softer" than the standard printing paper you are familiar with.
