the paper survives depends a lot on how it was stored. Direct sunlight
definitely will degrade the paper that is why it is often in black bags. If
the paper is 8.5" wide you could use the roll paper for thermal fax machines,
that paper should be readily available at office supply stores.
Sheets of thermal paper can also be used (Gavilan printer used those, as
did some of the fax machines)
Expect the outer wraps of the roll to be the first to go bad, so you'll
probably have to discard the outer fraction of each roll.
