Grr. I went to find out more details for you, and found that the Ask Oyster answer has been "updated":-
Question
Can I buy paper tickets with the money I have added to my Oyster card for pay as I go?

Don't know why they've removed the facility, but I thought I should come back and correct this ASAP.
