Thanks to one and all who responded to my inquiry.  First, let me make
a correction to my last posting.  The QRS stencil actually transfers
ink through the belt rather than raised letters.  Thanks to Bob Berkman
who set me straight on this.

The old Panasonic printer does accept piano rolls, and I print the
leaders with it.  To avoid respooling the roll, I place the roll in the
old spoolbox attached to the printer.  Then I place a piece of masking
tape on the "D" ring, doubled back on itself.  This allows me to pull
the roll through the printer.  Once the "D" ring is through, I remove
the tape and hook the roll to the take-up spool on the spool box which
is chained to the roller on the printer.

The tractor-feeder has been removed -- it caused more slippage of the
paper than it cured.  The take-up spool chained to the rotating bar in
the printer really helps to stop slippage.  The whole affair is in the
printer upside down, so I scanned some images (roll title, my
autograph, Tempola, etc.), inverted them, put them in Microsoft Word
and printed them.  It makes a beautiful roll leader.

I can tell you that the wax paper is rough on the ribbon in the
printer.  Bill Jelen's double spoolbox might work, but I would also
attach a roll of adding machine paper to wind up with the roll to
prevent the ink from transferring to the back side of the roll as it
advanced.  Instead of an ink roller, a small air brush device might be
used to advantage here.  The stencil would also have to set very tight
against the roll.  But his idea just might work.

I have been working in Microsoft Word to create a "stencil", but not
much luck.  The page breaks are the confusing point.  I wonder if the
printer could be configured to ignore the page breaks?
