Kokuyo KB Paper, A4, Recycled Multipurpose Print & Copy Paper, 68 Bright (ISO), Thickness 0.1 mm, 66gsm, 500 Sheets, Japan Import (KB-SS39)

Best reasonably priced paper for fountain pens that I have ever came across. Bought one (500 sheets of) A4 pack, and was blown away by the quality of the paper - no bleed-though on anything, very tactilely pleasing (if that's a word), and would recommend to anyone - 10/10.ONLY USED FOR PHYSICAL WRITINGdon't know how this paper would do in a printer, only used for writing with pens, fountain pens, markers, ect. Different size than standard-american-printer-paper, but can't image it would be that different to adjust.

I do a lot of math work; I use print paper as scratch paper. Made a world of a difference when I switched to Kokuyo print paper. The paper is soft, lightweight, works for a variety of pens and pencils. I love the slightly off-white color. It's makes the writing experience joyful! Will buy more when I run out.

I LOVE Stalogy paper, but I wanted to make my own smaller inserts for my TN. I also wanted to print a 4 mm grid on it.First of all, yes, my paper package was open. However, it shipped in a box and wasn't damaged at all. I think the thin, washi style tape used to close the ream just isn't super strong.Upon removing a sheet of paper, I was impressed with how thin it was. It really felt like my Stalogy paper! Maybe a hair thicker, but very comparable.I put the paper in my printer and held my breath. It printed like a dream! Double sided, even! I quickly put it together into an insert.The color is a nice white, which I prefer so I don't have to buy fancy cream colored correction tape.It is SO SMOOTH to write on! I mainly use gel pens and while there is some ghosting, bleed through is minimal. MOST of my fountain pens did not bleed through, but a few jucier inks did show a few dots of bleeding through the paper.I am very happy with this paper. Yes, it is more expensive, but the number of inserts I will be able to make will be a far greater savings in the long run and they will be exactly what I want.

My plan with this paper was to use a disc punch and binder to create a page for each of my fountain pen inks with the information and swatching on top and then an inking history following. My journal is A5, but I bought the A4 paper because it was twice as much paper for only a few dollars more. This paper is thin so if I put a template underneath, I can use it for ruling and such. I have not tried all of my inks yet but I am pleased with the way this paper shows sheen. That was my primary concern because I wanted paper that would showcase the properties of the ink.I do have some bleedthrough and feathering with more troublesome inks (looking at you, 54th Mass), and because this paper is so thin, I would not recommend it for instances where you really want to use both sides. I can read pencil lines on the page underneath it.

I use this paper to make custom inserts and note pads for my Midori Traveler's Notebook. I make calendars, lined paper, dot grid, and graph. It has a coating on it that prevents bleed-through and ghosting of fountain pens. It has a great feel as well. It feeds through my laser printer with no problem, although there is an occasional creased page when printing both sides, I would say this is less than 5% of the time.At 64 gsm this paper is thinner than "typical" copy paper, which means in space-conscious applications like portable notebooks it works well where you can get more pages into the same thickness. The thinness doesn't feel like "cheapness" at all. I would call the color of this paper "cream". It is a pleasing color, but definitely not white. Overall, I couldn't be happier with this paper.

The product is great. Paper is as it always has been. However the packaging and shipping left a lot to be desired. My ream came busted out of the paper and because it was just packaged in a soft bag, there was nothing to keep it from getting damaged in transport.However the Kokuyo business paper is a dream to use. One of my favorites. Not quite the fussy Tomoe River paper, but a step up from ordinary copy paper and not as thick as some papers so you can pack more into a planner.I'll order again, but wish they'd do a better job packaging the ream so they don't bust open.

The paper is outstanding! Kokuyo paper is great stuff. Smooth, good for use with every type of pen I own (including fountain pen!). My only complaint is how the ream was packaged. It was sent packed alongside a few other items I ordered, in an envelope with no padding. So the packaging for the paper was split along several corners. Thankfully, the paper itself is in good shape and ready to use!Yes, the paper is a little pricy, but it's also an imported product, so that's expected. It has been absolutely worth the money I spent, just be aware the ream may not show up in pristine condition.

I bought this for my son who has begun using fountain pens as his main choice of a writing tool. He was looking for paper that not only we can use for a printer, but would allow him to write on both sides of the paper. The very first page he pulled to test on bled through the pages. When I tried to return to Amazon I was notified that I must notify the company for refund. This took me to their external website's customer service page. I opened up a service ticket that generated an auto-reply email that thanked me for getting in touch and we will respond as soon as we can. That was more than month ago. I now have expensive printer paper. I do not recommend purchasing this from Amazon because of return issue.
