How to Buy Bitcoin and store it on a paper wallet in 7 steps

From "https://community.coinbase.com/t/how-to-buy-bitcoin-and-store-it-on-a-paper-wallet-in-7-steps/9627"

To put Bitcoin on my paper wallet:
1. I purchase a Bitcoin from the Coinbase exchange
2. I use a secure external site to generate the BIP 38 Encrypted Bitcoin Paper Wallet obtaining a public and private key.
3. I go to my coin base account, and send my Bitcoin to the public address. It is then removed from Coinbase and store on the paper wallet (is that correct?).
4. To confirm the process, I then paste the public key into Blockchain.info to confirm the transaction has been made

To use the Bitcoin on my paper wallet:
1. I go to my wallet (it could be coinbase or somethine else). I generate a new public key for that wallet to receive my Bitcoin on the paper wallet
2. I go to Blockchain.info and insert my private key to send to my wallet.
3. It can then be spent.
