Carbonless paper and NCR paper are the same thing. NCR stands for “No Carbon Required” and is a type of paper that allows users to make copies of a document without a printer, scanner, or photocopier.
NCR paper is a modern alternative to carbon paper, which was the standard for making duplicates in the past. Carbon paper was messy and could transfer carbon to fingers and clothes. It also retained a visual image of the text, making it an insecure choice for confidential documents.
NCR paper is made up of multiple sheets of paper that are coated with a dye backing and a clay-like substance. When the top sheet is written on, the pressure transfers the dye onto the sheet underneath, creating a copy of the original document. The print is accurate and can be transferred down multiple sheets.
NCR paper has many uses, including: Invoices, Contracts, Warranty forms, Application forms, and Delivery dockets.
NCR paper is available in a variety of colors and can be used as a notepad, business form, or other custom-made form.
If your requirement is for multipart forms or continuous business documents, review the NCR paper category first. When specification details are ready, use the contact page with ply count, sheet size, color sequence, and print method.
