Look for paper for printing calculators/adding machines. They use good old ink and ribbons so the tabulations do not fade with time. Most adding machine rolls are a larger diameter like this:

I've got about 50 rolls of paper for the 'wide carriage' version of the Alps mech used my the Convergant Workslate. The diameter is smaller but it would have to be cut down for the small printers. Not sure how to easily/accurately accomplish that. I think it would be easier to get the 57mm calculator rolls and rewrap it around a smaller core.
