payslips

I have just been informed by my employer that from March they will no longer issue paper payslips. They wish to send payslips by email instead. I've not heard of this before, can they do this, is it legal?

My mob have stopped sending out printed payslips and we now have to view them on Oracle. Can I insist on a printed payslip? I work from home and they used to post it to my house. Because I'm not allowed by IT policy to install a printer on my laptop and they are too tight to supply one...
