About 20 years ago I bought 12 rolls of paper at a flea market. It was sized for use in dot matrix printers, but had no sprockets or dotted lines, so it was great for drawing anything longer than 11".
Recently I ran out and had a tough time getting sales clerks at office supply stores to understand what I was asking for.
Well, I just found out that it is called "teleprinter paper" of the "impact bonding" type. "Impact bond" differentiates it from the thermal paper used in many fax machines. It comes in 235 foot rolls, and if you look around you can get it for about $10 per roll or less after shipping.
I just thought I'd let everyone know about it and how to search for it, since I've found it so useful over the years.
PS: if you want it to lay flat instead of curling back up, put it under a sheet of cloth on an ironing board and iron it very briefly.
