If an applicant wants a paper Form I-94 upon admission, is there a way to obtain one?

CBP Response:

An arriving alien may request issuance of a paper Form I-94 when applying for admission at Customs. The alien will then be referred to Secondary Inspection to be issued a paper Form I-94. The alien may be delayed depending upon the workload in Secondary Inspection as Primary Inspection officers do not issue paper Forms I-94.
