A mistake in the paper (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slip

This clue is a double definition.

'a mistake' is the first definition.
(slip is a kind of mistake)

'paper' is the second definition.
(slip is a kind of paper)

'in the' is the link.

(Other definitions for slip that I've seen before include "shift" , "Silly little mistake" , "release > voucher" , "Cricket fielder - mistake" , "pre-printed form" .)
