Ask for "end rolls". These are rolls of newsprint with no ink. Like the last few sheets of toilet paper on a roll, they are too short for the high speed machinery to use and are otherwise recycled or discarded. They often have a few hundred feet of pristine paper. Oh, and they come on some really stout cardboard tubes- useful for all kinds of things. Cheers! Go to the nearest newspaper printer.
