We resolve the black hole information loss paradox from first principles within The Paper and the Pen framework. By redefining event horizons as discrete boundaries of four-volume record settlement V₄ʰᵒʳⁱᶻᵒⁿ governed by the Single-Record Settlement Principle (SRSP) and witness redundancy architectures, quantum information imprinted on the horizon avoids thermal decoherence. Because the signed record operator satisfies strict commutation [H, ρ̂_Λ] = 0 across conserved sectors, the global density matrix undergoes exact unitary U-evolution. We present a parameter-free analytic derivation of the Page curve, establishing that the entanglement entropy of Hawking radiation follows Srad(V₄) = min \ ABH4G, \, v₀ Nw ln 2 \, which turns over at Page time and decays smoothly to zero upon complete evaporation.
