Definition 1
General: Office supplies (specially paper and envelopes) used for writing, typing, or printing. Not to be confused with 'stationary' which means not moving or having a fixed position.
Definition 2
Computing: Several kinds of paper used in printers, such as (1) Single sheet stationery: Paper cut into standard sizes (such as letter, legal, A4), sold usually in reams of 500 sheets and used mainly with friction-feed printers such as inkjet and laser printers. (2) Continuous stationery: fan-folded paper with sprocket holes on sides and transverse perforations for easy separation into individual sheets, used mainly with impact printers. It is of two types: (a) 'single part' consists of only one sheet (ply) of paper, whereas (b) 'multipart' may have two, three, or more plies of 'carbonless' copying paper; the top ply serves as the original and the others as copies. (3) Roll stationery: continuous roll of paper with no folds or perforations but may have sprocket holes on sides, used mainly with impact or thermal printers such as fax machines.
