The action of cutting is not a form of energy. Chemical energy in your cells is converted to kinetic energy in your muscles and the scissor blades. The force you apply breaks the fibres of the paper.

How do you get a piece of paper on the computer screen and get to type on the computer screen?

The "piece of paper" is what is called 'virtual' it is a representative of a real piece of paper but is actually an image of one.

When a paper is burned what type of energy is that and where does it come from?

Burning paper converts the chemical energy stored in the paper into thermal energy (heat) and light energy. This energy comes from the chemical bonds within the paper breaking down and releasing energy in the form of heat and light as the paper combusts.
