Printable piano staff paper

Each system joins a treble staff and a bass staff with a brace, as in piano music. Write the right hand on the top staff and the left hand on the bottom one. Barlines are already drawn, so you can write straight in. Print at 100% (Actual size).

Piano music is written on a grand staff: two staves joined by a brace, the upper usually for the right hand and the lower for the left. Six grand staves per page is a comfortable size for writing by hand.

• In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% or Actual size. Fit to page shrinks the page and the spacing with it.
• Choose the same paper size in the print dialog as on this page.
• Turn off headers and footers in the print dialog if your browser adds a date or web address.
• The PDF keeps every line as a vector, so it stays sharp at any zoom and prints the same on any printer.

Is the paper free to use?

Yes. Print as many copies as you like for yourself, your class or your study group.

Why does my printout look slightly smaller?

The print dialog is scaling it. Set the scale to 100% or Actual size and the spacing matches the number you picked.
