Moreno,
Thanks for the info. Sounds like some good stuff. I will contact 3M to find a local or web reseller. 25 feet might come in handy but 25 yards is a bit much! If I find an on line source I'll let you know.

Martin,
I don't have a part number. I don't even remember where I got it. However,
there's more info at:
http://www.3m.com/reclosables/ans_shell.jhtml
The particular type I have is called the self-mating Dual Lock Reclosable
Fastener. Both sides are identical, have have little plastic mushroom-type
plastic tabs. It takes a bit of force to lock the two halves together, but
once they snap into place there is no movement and no chance of sagging like
velcro.
The stuff comes in rolls of 25 yards or more, but all you need for a printer
is a few inches. I'm trying to get a hold of someone at 3M to see if it's
available in smaller retail-packaged lengths, but haven't had any luck so
far. I wouldn't mind getting a few more feet of the stuff. A while back I
mentioned this stuff to nomorecarts hoping that they'd switch over to it, or
perhaps sell small pieces as optional upgrades or retrofits, but they
weren't too interested at the time.
