[GreenKeys] Cases of Roll Paper in N.Y.

[Nick England]

I'd say go for it if the price stays cheap - I just ran some 2-ply NCR
paper through my 28ASR and printed directly to the reverse side of the
top sheet with no problems - should be about the same as printing on
this single-ply stuff. And I think we'll probably be able to leave the
ribbon off if you don't mind light blue printing. Not as beautiful for
your framed TTY art, but it'll be cheaper!
