FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an NCR pad?
NCR stands for No Carbon Required. NCR pads use carbonless paper to transfer handwriting from the white top sheet onto the coloured copies underneath, creating multiple copies without traditional carbon paper.
They're commonly used for invoices, receipts, delivery notes, order forms and other business paperwork.
Every NCR pad also includes a greyboard writing shield, helping prevent your writing from transferring onto the sets underneath.
Why should I use NCR pads?
NCR pads create multiple handwritten copies at the same time, removing the need to scan, photocopy or duplicate forms manually.
They're ideal when one copy needs to go to a customer and another needs to be kept for your records.
What do 2-part, 3-part and 4-part NCR forms mean?
The number of parts refers to the total number of sheets within each NCR set.
- 2-part NCR (duplicate): one white original and one copy.
- 3-part NCR (triplicate): one white original and two copies.
- 4-part NCR (quadruplicate): one white original and three copies.
What is the difference between NCR pads and NCR sets?
NCR sets are individual multipart forms supplied separately, making them easy to distribute between people or locations.
NCR pads contain multiple sets glued together into one pad, keeping your forms together until each set is removed.
Which NCR pad size should I choose?
Choose your NCR size based on how much information your form needs to hold:
- A3 NCR Pads: Detailed inspections, site surveys and technical forms.
- A4 NCR Pads: Invoices, delivery notes, job sheets and business forms.
- A5 NCR Pads: Compact invoices, order forms and sign-off sheets.
- A6 NCR Pads: Receipts, collection slips and short forms.
- DL NCR Pads: Delivery slips, order pads and narrow forms.
When you write on the top sheet, the information is transferred through the carbonless sheets underneath, creating all required copies at the same time.
What is sequential numbering on NCR pads?
Sequential numbering gives each NCR set a unique number, making forms easier to identify, organise and track.
Every sheet within the same set receives the same number, with the next set continuing the sequence. For example, all sheets in one set may show 0001, followed by 0002 on the next set.
What font and size are used for NCR pad numbering?
instantprint uses Calibri Standard at 16pt for sequential numbering on NCR pads.

Supplying Your Artwork
Please supply 1 design page for your NCR Pad - every sheet in the pad carries the same design, so we're not able to print a different design on each page.
NCR Pads can be printed single-sided or double-sided. Single-sided prints the front of every sheet only; double-sided prints the front and back of every sheet. Bear in mind the pad is only ever written on the front - double-sided is usually used for things like terms and conditions that are only meant to be read, on the reverse.
NCR Pads use carbonless paper: writing or pressure applied to the top sheet transfers straight through to the sheets underneath, so every part of the pad captures the same information. If you'd like sequential numbering added to each set, specify where you need it placing when designing or uploading your artwork to the website.
Please note, due to the extra checks that we carry out for this product, it can take up to 4 hours to receive your proof.
