What about mylar tape? That's commonly chosen when a tape has to be read many times.

If you get non-oiled paper I don’t know if there
would
be additional occasional mechanism maintenance needed. I guess take what
you can get.
Not only will there be more stoppages, you'll wear out the punch pins faster. Oiled
paper is pretty well a hard requirement.
You can of course *read* non-oiled tape without damage.
Thanks,
