NCR Sets

Loose carbonless sets glued along one edge, in 2, 3 or 4 part, from 50 sets to 50,000.

Description

Carbonless copies in their simplest form

NCR sets are individual carbonless sets glued along one edge, ready to write on and separate. They suit receipts, invoices and delivery notes where you want the copies without the bulk of a pad or book. Choose 2, 3 or 4 part in A4, A5, A6 or DL, pick the colour of each copy sheet and add filing holes if you need them. Order from 50 sets up to 50,000. A real person checks your artwork before anything is printed.

Artwork made easy

Every order includes a free artwork check by a real person — you don't need to ask. If we spot a problem, we'll contact you before anything gets printed.

Supply a CMYK PDF at 300dpi with 3mm bleed and a 5mm safe zone, keeping key content clear of the glued edge. If you are printing double-sided, set the reverse in 70% black rather than solid black, which stops it showing through to the copies beneath. Sets can be glued on the short or the long edge, so tell us which suits your layout.

Frequently asked questions

How do NCR sets work?
NCR means "no carbon required". The sheets are coated so that writing on the top sheet transfers to the sheets below through pressure alone, with no carbon paper. Each set is glued along one edge: write, then separate the copies to hand out or file.
What is the difference between 2, 3 and 4 part?
The number of sheets in each set. 2 part gives you a top sheet and one copy, 3 part gives two copies and 4 part gives three.
Can I choose the colours of the copy sheets?
Blue, green, pink, white or yellow. You choose the colour of the second copy, the third copy and the bottom copy when you order.
How are sets different from NCR Pads?
Sets are individual glued sets with no pad binding or writing shield, so they are the most flexible format if you want the copies loose. NCR Pads bundle 50 sets into a glue-bound pad with a writing shield, for tearing off on the move.
Which edge should the sets be glued on?
The short or the long edge, depending on your layout. Portrait forms are usually glued on the short top edge and landscape forms on the long edge. If you are unsure, send your design and we'll suggest the edge that works best.
What is the smallest and largest quantity?
From 50 sets up to 50,000.
Can Printlogik design my NCR sets?
Yes. If you don't have artwork, or yours needs tidying up, our studio can set up your file or create the design from scratch. Ask for a design quote and we'll price it before you commit.
