Authority To Travel Receipt (ATTR) machines were generally placed on low patronage platforms and issued a flimsy paper receipt.
This receipt was handed to the Booking Clerk at the junction or destination station as a "part payment" of the fare
originally required by the passenger. The ATTR was kept by the Booking Clerk, and a new ticket then issued which
covered travel from the origin station to the destination station at a fare less the amount shown on the ATT Receipt.
Very few flimsy paper ATTR's appear to have survived.

There are two designs of paper rolls used in the ATTR machines.
The earlier design has "CityRail" in pale blue then pale orange across the width of the ticket.

Two other uses for the rolls were to print a "Vault inserted receipt" issued after changing over the coin vault(s),
and also for a printer diagnostic test.
