It really does print with laser black toner printer.

Worked perfectly with my inkjet. I had to play around with the settings a bit. Finally was able to get it right by selecting "draft" which used less ink. I bought this brand and one other brand. This one printed so much better than the other brand. I bought these to package some of my more expensive Etsy orders. It's an inexpensive way to upgrade my packaging and was super easy to work with having never touched vellum paper before.

It is a miracle that it arrived undamaged. It was folded gently in the middle, shipped via US mail, in a glassine bag and Tyvek envelope. Shipping aside, the paper is very good quality and works very well in my laser printer. No smudging at all and sharp photo prints.It is just slightly more translucent than the Strathmore 109 gsm vellum I have used for years, but I got the same results for about 1/3 the cost. If this paper was packaged better I would not hesitate to give it 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.

Delivery and packaging were excellent, and I love these vellum sheets, I’ve been using them for a while and the quality and translucence is top notch! Very please with the item and order, thank you!

Beautiful velum, I make greeting cards and this stuff works for multiple things.

Bought this to use in making windows in a dollhouse. The plan originally was to use the velum for the windows in a model of the Christmas Vacation advent calendar, but i used it the first time for some spooky windows ina Halloween haunted dollhouse and it turned out better than I hoped. Super easy to use. Feeds just like any other paper in my laser jet printer, no smearing and the colors came out great (although in a "haunted" house the colors are all darker so I can't speak to bright colors yet). All in all very happy with this product and will definitely recommend and buy again
