Richard,

from time to time our group of teleprinter (teletype) collectors in Germany
organize an order
for 3/8" (9.5mm) strip tape paper from a roll paper company that still
produces it on demand.
Same paper machtches also German Siemens and Lorenz machines.
Price is affordable, abt. 2 $ per roll as I recall from last order.
Unfortunately last order of 500 rolls is now sold out, bit I am sure the
will be a new one
in the future.
