Question

What is NCR paper and how is it used?

Answer

NCR paper, short for No Carbon Required, is a carbonless paper used for multi-part forms. A special coating transfers what you write on the top sheet onto the sheets below, so you get instant copies without any messy carbon paper in between.

  • Each part is usually a different color to keep copies organized.
  • Copies form automatically as you write, no carbon sheet needed.
  • Often supplied with standard perforation for easy tear-off.
  • Different parts can carry different printing, such as file, customer, and office copies.
