Word: Typewriter Paper

Definition: Typewriter paper is a type of writing paper that is designed to be used with a typewriter. It is usually thicker and smoother than regular paper, which helps the typewriter keys to make clear impressions on the page.

Usage Instructions:

• Typewriter paper is loaded into a typewriter, just like you would load regular paper into a printer.

Example:

Word Variants:
