Obviously, few here have witnessed an IBM mainframe laser printer from 25+ years ago. Continuous form paper. You could take the end of the paper coming out and run away from it as fast as you could, and it would easily make a pile behind you. It could print up to 20,000 lines per minute!

Needless to say, when I wanted 17 page per minute printing for my business computer 20 years ago, I bought an HP LaserJet 4si. It cost an arm and a leg, but it got the job done! HP LaserJet 4 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
