Looking over that, I’m not certain those would smell the same way otheroptions did, but at my elementary school, that’s what teachers usually called them. If it wasn’t that, it was dittos
Mimeos worked differently and didn’t smell nearly as strong, but they needed special paper (“twilltone” in the fanzine world) and the stencils and machines were more expensive than their ditto counterparts. You’d use them for large copy runs since a stencil could run off unlimited copies. Ditto masters were basically carbon paper and were good for maybe 30-50 copies depending. About right for a batch of class handouts. Dittos were also relatively clean and convenient to operate. Using a mimeo generally made a mess.
There was also mimeo, or some similar spelling, from mimeograph
