Yes, we did it to ours and it worked great!
The simple answer is that you do not want to include the weight of the weighing pan or paper in the sample. The easiest and most accurate way to do that is to balance the beam first. In terms of calibration you only need to do this on a daily basis or even less. The concern is that in the process of taking the beam out for use it may have been whacked out of calibration.

A Beam balance (or Beam scale) is a device to measure weight or mass.
salt is applied to ice in the winter to dissolve all the ice to make it less slippery.
Triple-Beam Balance This type of laboratory balance is less sensitive than a top-loading balance. They are often used in a classroom situation because of ease of use, durability, and cost. They are called triple-beam balances because they have three decades of weights that slide along individually calibrated scales.
Some can measure up to 610 grams, some less some more.

It is an opinion. If you like a platform balance, then it is more accurate to you. If you like a triple beam balance, then that is more accrate for you. It doesn't matter what other people say about it because you might think something else is more accurate. That is why this question is not answered.
