Does this mean I won't get a paper boarding pass when I get to the airport counter? They said, "We recommend you print this page", but it's just a page listing my times for my flights and an ID number.
Tickets and boarding passes are different things.
You will receive an electronic ticket (e-ticket) which may contain one or more flight segments. Most airlines no longer issue paper tickets.
You will receive a boarding pass once you've checked in for each flight segment (either online or at the airport). If you checkin at the airport you will be given a paper boarding pass.
If you do online checkin this may be a PDF which you can print, or a mobile boarding pass on your phone/tablet. You can still ask at the airport for a paper boarding pass to be printed.
