question about paper-wallet, bitcoin core, trezor and seed-words?

[r1973]

I already have bitcoins in a paper-wallet (and a bitcoin-core ballanced zero). Can I send those bitcoin directly from the paper-wallet to a new Trezor? If not, how do I import the paper's private-key to core (0.13.1) first? Does it require miners' (transaction) fees?

How do I create secure seed-words?

Yes, import it into Bitcoin Core.

If not, how do I import the paper's private-key to core (0.13.1) first? Does it require miners' (transaction) fees?

How do I create secure seed-words?

Use the steps above, given by LoyceV. This step does not require transaction fees. Transaction fees is required when you send the coins to your trezor wallet.

There should be a guide for Trezor in the package that came with it.

Thanks. should I type the paper's private-key with or without the " " ? Can you be exact on that? Also what is a label, and for what use?

Without. The label basically helps you to identity what the address is used for. It can only be seen in the wallet itself and nowhere else.

Does such import is recorded on the blockchain?

With the keys imported into your core wallet, you can spend the funds from there. Nothing else changes.

Does Trezor stand to its secutiry features better than bitcoin-core and paper-wallets?

If done properly, paper wallets can be as secure as Trezor. Bitcoin Core is not as secure as it seems since it is mostly a wallet for day use. Trezor has much better security features since the private key is kept inside the device and the device is secure against malware.
