Description
Description
This 8.5 x 11.5 sheet is micro perforated on top, so every form tears off clean to a standard letter-size copy without a knife or trimmer. It's a 2 part reverse set, coated front canary over coated back white, precollated and ready to run. The extra half inch leaves room for the perf line and still drops to letter size once the stub comes off, which suits receipts, tickets, and tear-off stubs.
Carbonless paper, also known as NCR paper, transfers writing from the top sheet to the sheet below through a coated chemical reaction, no messy carbon in between. This case ships as 10 reams, 2,500 sets and 5,000 sheets, enough to keep a run of carbonless forms moving without reordering.

Features and Benefits
Two-part perforated carbonless paper creates duplicate copies without carbon paper, so you get a clean record and clean hands. The micro perforation runs across the top of each sheet, so tear-offs come away straight and the retained copy stays flat. Built-in perforations let you detach sheets with ease, no cutting tools, saving a finishing step.
The 2 part reverse sequence pairs a canary coated front with a white coated back. Color coding the plies lets anyone at the counter tell the customer copy from the business record with ease, so the customer gets an immediate receipt while you keep a file copy.
This is a heavier, stiffer base sheet than lightweight bond, so it feeds straight and resists curl. That stiffness gives the NCR paper its ease on press: it runs on laser printers, inkjet printers, copiers, and offset presses, with clear, crisp imaging down to the last ply.

This case comes as loose precollated sets, the pack most shops use. Typical configurations for carbonless paper include loose sets, padded sets, and bound books, so you have options when the finished form calls for a glued stub or binding. It is often sold in packs of 5,000 sheets, as here.
Environmental conditions like humidity can affect the performance of carbonless paper, so store it away from moisture and heat to keep the coating stable. Give a cold case time to reach room temperature before a run. If you need the standard letter trim, the 8.5 x 11 carbonless paper 2 part reverse runs the same canary and white sequence in a 2,500 set case. For the narrower web, the 9 x 11 perforated carbonless 2 part reverse shares the build.

What Carbonless Paper Is Used For
NCR paper is built for any job where two parties need the same written record at once. Write or print once, and the image transfers to the copy underneath, so the customer keeps a receipt while you keep the file copy. Common uses include invoices, receipts, work orders, and tear-off stubs, plus medical and administrative forms that need a duplicate on file.
The pre-perfed sheet earns its keep on carbonless forms with a detachable section. This perforated carbonless paper 2 part set lets the stub tear away with ease while the form stays intact. For other sizes and ply counts, browse the pre-perforated carbonless paper collection or the broader carbonless paper for any press range.
How to Print on 2 Part Carbonless Paper
Load the precollated set so the canary coated front faces the print head and the white sheet sits behind it, keeping the 2 part reverse sequence in order. Since the sheets are collated, you don't interleave plies by hand. Run a short test first to confirm the image lands where you want it.
Keep the stock flat and don't overfill the tray, since the coated sheets can grip each other. On press, watch your impression so the transfer coating images cleanly without crushing the plies. The heavier base sheet holds registration across uncollated sheets and precollated sequences alike.
Carbon Paper vs. Carbonless Paper
The difference comes down to the carbon. Carbon paper is a separate dark sheet you slip between pages, and it smudges hands and documents. Carbonless paper builds that transfer into the paper itself through coated front and coated back layers, so pressure alone moves the image from ply to ply. No loose carbon, and a cleaner record. The same NCR paper scales from this 2 part set into 3 part, 4 part, and 5 part forms when a job needs more copies.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is the Difference Between Carbon Paper and Carbonless Paper?
Carbon paper is a separate inked sheet placed between pages to transfer writing, while carbonless paper has the transfer coating built into the sheet. With NCR paper, pressure from a pen or printer moves the image to the ply below without loose carbon, so it's cleaner to handle and faster to run.
Can I Perforate My Own Paper?
You can, but these sheets already arrive micro perforated on top, so there's nothing to add. To perforate other stock in house, you'll need a perforating blade or rule on the press or a tabletop perforator. For those supplies, see the micro-perf paper rules, litho-perf cutting rules, and perforating blades and score rules collections.
What Is Carbonless Paper Used For?
Carbonless paper is used for multi-part business forms that need an instant duplicate: invoices, receipts, work orders, and tear-off stubs, plus medical and administrative forms that require a copy on file. It gives both parties the same record at once and keeps legible images down to the last ply, which is the satisfaction shops expect from NCR paper.
Does This Paper Work With My Equipment?
Yes. This 2 part carbonless paper is compatible with laser printers, inkjet printers, copiers, and presses. The heavier, stiffer base sheet runs with ease across digital dry toner and offset printing, so one brand of NCR paper covers most of the gear in a shop and keeps imaging predictable.
How Many Sets Come in a Case, and Can I Get More Plies?
Each case holds 10 reams: 2,500 sets and 5,000 sheets of precollated 2 part forms. For more copies per set, the 8.5 x 11.5 carbonless 3 part reverse and 8.5 x 11.5 carbonless 4 part reverse run the same size with added plies. The 3 part and 4 part sets share this brand's build, and NCR paper comes in 2, 3, 4, and 5 part configurations.
