HP Printer Paper 8.5x11 Premium 32 lb 1 Pack 250 Sheets 100 Bright Made in USA FSC Certified Copy Paper HP Compatible 113500R : Amazon.ca: Office Products

Beautiful paper, well packaged! A little pricey, but would recommend & buy again.

Purchased this stock to use with fountain pens, calligraphy practice and some letter writing.The stock is very smooth (much like Rhodia) and especially thick which keeps the ink from seeping through to the opposite side, dry time is acceptable as this is a very smooth non-porous surface, some feathering with a Noodler’s Ahab (medium nib?) and wet ink (no surprise there). Nice brightness, and affordable; really nice weight per page which is nice for letter presentation (especially when cut down to a smaller size) but I would stick to paper containing cotton for the more important stuff.Haven’t tried an F nib but I think feathering and dry time would improve. In closing, for a non fountain pen specific paper it handles extremely well for the price.

After seeing in over 10 sites recommendations about the HP Premium 32 paper for the smoothness especially if using high end markers, I decided to give it a try. The package with 250 sheets went on sale and it was a better deal than buying 500 (go figure!). When I got I could quickly see why people are so crazy about it. Smooth, bright and heavy paper. No need to say anything. It comes wrapped in plastic. I’ll use mostly for calligraphy practice which means I’ll be using many legs and garbaging them and it does feel bad to throw out in the garbage such a good paper. I ordered 2 packages of 259 sheets. It was delivered 2 days sooner but I quickly ordered 2 more and again it arrived sooner. The packages were different but the paper looks and feels the same.
