That would be some old printer paper! Before ink jet and laser printers, there was the DOT MATRIX PRINTER. The holes on either side of the paper allowed it to be fed through the printer and so printing was possible. It was referred to as tractor feed paper.

What are the margins set at on a normal paper?

The default in many programs is 1 1/5 inches on the top and 1 inch on the sides and bottom. However, check the style manual for your business, school or professor to be sure that you follow their standards. Some want 1 1/5 on the left so they can punch holes. Others want 1 inch on all sides, others don't care.
