Hi all, today I want to share with you a review of HP Inkjet Paper 24lb (HPB1124). I bought them last year from Staples when they were on sale ($8.99 USD).

Advantages:

-You can print lines, grid, dot grid, or leave the paper blank.

-There are no any visible feathering that I see.

 

Disadvantages:

-It is blank, but again, you can print your preferred format on the paper.

-The paper gives you little to no shading. (I used Diamine Syrah, Noodler's Kiowa Pecan, and Diamine Sherwood Green.)

-There are some slight bleedthrough/heavy show-through with the flex writing and wetter ink.

 

Things to be aware of:

-Ink generally dries in less than 20 seconds using a fine nib.

-It is US letter sized.

-I am pretty sure they come in reams (500 sheets).

 

However, the pens that I have used mostly have fine nibs, so I would suggest using heavier paper if you use wetter or broader nibs, since I am not sure if they will perform equally well on this 24lb paper.

 

You can find them on Amazon. They are currently $9.94 USD for 500 sheets.

Thank you for this review, very interesting.

 

How would you rate the smoothness of this paper?

 

To me, it feels (very) slightly smoother normal computer paper (20lb). It is thicker and less flimsy than 20lb paper I would say?

 

Could CHP1825 be its A4 equivalent?

I would not be surprised if it were. It seems only normal for HP to release a different sized version in other regions. It's good paper.
HPB1124 has a US brightness rating of 97 (108 International brightness rating). You could compare if you have CHP1825 available.

hank you for this review, very interesting.

 

How would you rate the smoothness of this paper?

 

To me, it feels like normal computer paper (20lb), but with thicker paper. It is similar to Fabriano (85 gsm) if you have had any experience with it.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
