Fan fold paper
Alternatively
referred to as continuous form paper, fan fold paper is paper used with a continuous feed printer that is separated by tearing the continuous paper into separate pieces
after the page has been printed. This paper is usually used with old
Dot matrix printers and although it is still being
used today it greatly disappeared in the 1990s when
ink jet and laser printers started to
become cheaper and more available.. In the picture to the right, is an example of a Dot matrix
printer with fan folding paper.
