Question
What does "2-part" or "3-part" mean for Carbonless Forms?
Answer
The number in front of "part" tells you how many sheets are in each set: one original plus its copies. The carbonless coating transfers your writing to each layer, and every ply is a different color so you can separate and file them at a glance.
| Configuration | Sheets | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| 2-part | 2 | Original plus one copy |
| 3-part | 3 | Original plus two copies |
| 4-part | 4 | Original plus three copies |
- A common color order is white, then yellow, then pink, then gold; the white top copy often goes to the customer and the colored copies stay with your records.
- More parts mean wider distribution but a slightly thicker set to write through.
- Match the part count to how many people or departments need a copy; up to 4-part covers most invoicing, work-order and receipt workflows.
