📝 NCR Tips & Useful Information from MD Print Shop

If you're new to NCR (No Carbon Required) printing or looking to optimise your business stationery, this guide will provide you with helpful tips and information to make the most of your carbonless forms. 

✅ What is NCR Paper? 

NCR paper allows you to create instant duplicates of handwritten or impact-printed documents without using messy carbon paper. We use carbonless copy paper and you can choose to have 2 Part (Duplicate), 3 Part (Triplicate) or 4 Part (Quadruplicate). 

It's commonly used for: 

  • Invoices 
  • Receipts 
  • Delivery notes 
  • Job sheets 
  • Order books 
  • And much more...

💡 Tips for Effective NCR Usage 

  1. Choose the Right Format – Decide whether you need pads (glued), books (perforated and bound), or loose sets (individual) depending on how you use the forms. 
  2. Custom Branding – Add your logo, contact details, and business info to look professional. 
  3. Upload your pre-design PDF file for printing or let us design for you. 
  4. Pick the Right Size - A5 and A4 are most popular, but other sizes including A3, DL, A6 and custom sizes are also available. 
  5. Sequential Numbering – Ideal for tracking orders and record-keeping. 
  6. Hole Punching (Drilling) - We can add 1, 2 or 4 holes to NCR forms. Let us know if you need hole punching on your order.  
  7. Binding Options – Choose glued pads or perforated books for easy tear-out. (You can also choose to have individual loose NCR sets). 
  8. Use Colour-Coding – Different coloured sheets help distinguish copies for customer, office, and accounts. 
  9. Design Layout Matters – Keep the layout clean and ensure space for signatures, dates, and notes. 
  10. Use Durable Grey Board Back Covers – Helps when writing on the go. 
  11. Consider Duplicate, Triplicate or Quadruplicate Sets – Decide how many copies you need per form.  
  12. Get a Print Proof - We will email you a digital proof of your design to approve before we proceed to production.
