3/4" - ticker tape
7/8" kleinschmidt (baudot + margin)
1" 8-level (usually ascii)

Eric,

All Kleinschmidt Laboratories Inc. machines used 7/8" tape and printed on the wide margin. (All KLI tape readers would read both 11/16" and 7/8" tape and some KLI reperfs could use 11/16" tape, printing over the feed holes.)

7/8" tape was also used by 6-bit Teletypesetter equipment.

Have fun,

Hello Greenkeyers,

I now have 4 types of paper tape:

3/4"
11/16"
7/8"
1"

The 11/16 and 1" are what I am more used to for 5 and 8 level. The 3/4" is for ticker tape I think, the 7/8" I am told was used for later kleinschmidts.

I will be making paper tape rolls available for a low price + shipping after we organize all this HW amd consumables.

Hardware and consumables will also be available at VCFMW. Greenkeyers coming to the show (mid september in Chicago), let me know and we can arrange for you to leave with a free teletype! (Conditions apply)
