No. Just an image I found online.

The last paper ticket I had was in 2008 when I'd booked a 16 sector LONE4 prior to QF canning NRT-MEL. I was rerouted via SYD creating a 17 sector trip and the e-ticket was reissued on paper. (of course that was later again reissued as a e-ticket midway through the trip due to the issues in BKK and being rerouted around it and the travel agent had said to keep the remaining paper coupons to return at the end. Of course, try explain that to BA at FCO and LHR...)
The only other paper ticket I've had since I started traveling on my own was a Oneworld Global Explorer ticket in 2006. I used JL for KIX-LHR when JL was on the xGLOBnn but before they joined oneworld and the xONEx. As JL had not completed ticketing links with all the carriers I was using, it was issued on paper.
