Lack of paper tape is was why I was asking about a replacement. The same goes for TTY replacement.
Late to the conversation, but the CNC machines I operated in the early '80s used mylar tape, I always assumed in defense against very harsh shop conditions.
I have no idea whether that's still a product but it seems it would be easier to get made than a suitable paper tape. My guess is that any thin, opaque laminate would do if it can be punched
