Paper tape had a high error rate (& tear rate). It chaffed & built dirt on reader, & absorbed finger grease & misread whether optical or capacitive readers. Mylar (plastic) was better, stronger. Often on long paper tapes we'd read several times & compare to ensure probably no errors. Checksums weren't so often available. Our pape tape flew so fast through the reader we held dustbins at ~ 45 degrees to catch it. & then reloaded slower back out of bin onto winder.
