Any recommendations for thermal paper for an AIM-65 ? Can you use any old till roll type paper (as long as its 2.25" wide) or does it have to be special ? I note that the manual says to NOT use Texas Instruments TP-27225 but doesn't say why ?

Any old thermal till roll of the same width will work - it does for me. However the print is likely to be black. I think that the original paper produced a fetching blue print!
If you need a spec, I'll try to remember where I got mine.
