Rats.  I was kinda hoping to see your efforts pay off as an indication of how much interest there is in getting new paper rolls of all kinds.  I think the world needs a new source of canary yellow paper rolls. :-)

Well, it looks like this is a bust.  I guess I should invest my time into a mechanism for rolling the fan-feed paper onto a spindle... <g>
Sorry for the sturm und drang.

I am reluctant to offer you a quote on the sprocket feed rolls since I believe that the fanfold sprocket feed forms are a better choice.  The fanfold sprocket feed forms are a stock item, so you can order just 1 case and give it a try.
Or you can try the 1-ply white bond rolls which are also a stock item.

Hi Richard -

We might be able to gin up enough interest in this to buy 10 cases of paper.  We'd be talking about adding sprocket holes to the Teletype / OKI Data 8 1/2" x 245' white bond rolls.  If we ordered exactly 10 cases, what would your price be?  

Thanks very much,

Keith Lueck

I have a long history with Teletype machines.  We used to manufacture Spirit Teletype rolls and Spirit Teletype sprocket feed forms.  We still produce carbonless Teletype rolls and carbonless Teletype sprocket feed forms.  Experience has taught us that sprocket feed rolls do not work with multiple parts, since the sprocket holes do not align well in the roll format.
  • Our minimum stock sprocket order is 1 case.   The 1-part 8 1/2 x 11 #20 white bond is packed 2700 /case, and the #15 white bond is packed 3600 /case.  
  • Our minimum custom sprocket order is 10,000 forms +/-.  
  • Our minimum stock roll order is 1 case of 12 rolls.
  • Our minimum custom roll order is 10 cases.

Hello -

I learned of your company from an email list I belong to.  Our list involves people who restore teletypes.  I see that you have 8 1/2" wide fanfold one-part computer paper (which is very rare these days), but I was wondering if you could punch sprocket holes into some 8 1/2" wide teletype paper rolls.  If so, what would be the minimum order for such a thing?  We may be able to organize a group buy to make this more feasible...  

Thanks,

Keith Lueck
