ticker tape

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'paper printed out' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both substances as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'take cut receipt doctored' is the wordplay.
'cut' means to remove the last letter.
'doctored' indicates an anagram.
'take' with its final letter taken away is 'tak'.
'tak'+'receipt'='takreceipt'
'takreceipt' with letters rearranged gives 'TICKER-TAPE'.

Can you help me to learn more?
