Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing an opaque paper by using Genus Typha L. The method includes preparing Genus Typha L. bleached pulp from Genus Typha L. and fabricating a paper from the Genus Typha L. bleached pulp. According to the present invention, the method can provide paper with a low basis weight, even if it includes very little or no mineral charging agent but having high opacity, smoothness, and printability. Since it includes very little or no mineral charging agent, it may not have much deteriorated mechanical strength.
