I've seen ELECTROSTATIC printers with silvery aluminized electrostatic
paper. Didn't hold up well to crumpling. Such as
http://www.trs-80.org/trs-80-quick-printer/
or the HP 9120
The THERMAL paper that I used for the Silent 700s was "white" and very
slowly changing to yellow or brown. Didn't hold up very well to heat
and/or sunlight.
The Gavilan had a printer that was thermal OR could take an ink ribbon
cartridge. When used with thermal paper AND the ink, the quality was
significantly better than either thermal or ink.
