Probably. Receipts are printed on thermal paper, a product from 3M. Thermal paper is coated with a self-assembled monolayer bonded to an ionic dye that changes colors when heated. That monolayer makes up about .01% of the volume of a receipt. I'm assuming a recycling facility could treat that like ink from printed paper which they have been removing for years. This could be a bad assumption, but I can almost guarantee that monolayer's specific gravity is less than one, meaning it would behave like ink in a pulp mixture for all practical purposes.
