"Will other B&W papers work with Kodak chemicals?"

Yes.  Everybody I've ever heard of uses the same general chemical reactions
in B&W printing paper.  If your darkroom procedure works for one B&W paper
it will work pretty well with any B&W paper.  Some of my first prints were
made on paper my dad had left over from the late 1930s (a bit outdated,
but it could reproduce an image).  Sure, there are lots of papers and
developers to choose from but the differences won't matter to many
beginners.

Pick something you find convenient and stick to it until you're really sure
it's not right for you.

Rick.
