Looking for listing paper in the UK. Check out our range of continuous paper mainly used in dot matrix printers. Listing paper can be supplied in single ply - 1 part or multi ply i.e. 2 part, 3 part.... Typically listing paper has punched holes down each side so it can be fed vertically through a tractor feed printer or a dot matrix printer. Listing paper is often referred to as computer paper, fan-fold paper, sprocket feed paper, burst paper and tractor feed paper. Listing paper is a continuous sheet of paper folded and micro perforated at intervals.
It may surprise people but there is still a demand for dot matrix printers and listing paper, the main reasons people have for using these types of printers is due to the fact you can print carbon copies. Other reasons are low running costs - dot matrix printers don’t need to use ink on the carbon paper and because the listing paper is continuous the paper rarely jams. The printer prints line by line so reduces the consumption of paper, also a lot of users praise the durability of the printer, they tend to last years and rarely break down.
