[GreenKeys] Paper for model 15

[Ralph Mowery]

The specs say 15 # .  That is sort of thin  paper.  Most of the paper you normally see is 20 #.   The higher the number, the better quality of the paper , usually.

 

Those numbers # are also called or listed as  lb or pound.   That is the weight of 500 sheets of paper of a standard size before it is cut into the smaller sheets like computer printers use.  Not all types paper use the same size sheets for that ‘standard’ size.

If you do get this, please post your opinion of the quality.

I bought some rolls of PM company paper and it was newsprint quality paper (very poor). I also saw this and wondered if it was really bond paper.

I think it would be great to get one box of the old fanfold wire service
paper. Does anyone have one they'd like to get rid of? Otherwise, any
better source than the link above?

THANKS!
