The slitter would be a real nice thing to have.  That way rolls of  
paper tape
could be made in the 1", 13/16", 3/8" and 5/16" widths.

Paper tape and Roll paper prices vary all over the place.
Like other items in the Teletype world... it is heavy to ship.

If you can convince someone to send the paper as MEDIA MAIL
you can afford the shipping.

Film for cameras is media.
Memory for whatever is media.
CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs are media.
Cassette tapes are media.
Paper is media for Teletype machines.

The requirement is that there is no advertising in the package.
Most of the paper tape and roll paper I have here was sent here via  
Media Mail.

I'm slowly being convinced to stay with sprocket feed. But for me having
a 35 is more for display and memories then anything else. So paper
usage should be low.

I'll have about 6 months to think about it, too many things other  
going on now.

I just could not see it going to the junk yard where it was headed.

On the paper roll issue, what is considered a 'good price' for a roll ?
I've a friend at a pretty big print shop and they buy paper in rolls  
that
take a fork lift, plus the last time I was there about a year ago they
had a slitter that although they no longer use it, it was still in their
warehouse.

-pete Now to get rid of two HP D and E size pen plotters for a VERY
reasonable price.
