We had a special line printer for this purpose and a machine called a
"burster", something I have not seen or heard about in about 25 years.

If you refer to the machine that separates the sheets into individual
pages when fed listing paper (continuous, but not on a roll, folded
every 11 inches with holes on the sides), they still exist. There is one
fast in the printing room for the State of California I worked on
recently. It feeds at 6 feet per second, an entire box of paper is
separated in a matter of minutes.
