Carbon paper, onion sheets, those little white plastic rectangles that let you cover up a typo. It all seems so antique now but that was part of college not too long ago.
I'm so happy I found this! I made my own carbon sheet to use in my manual typewriter and it works beautifully! Charcoal and patience can really make an idea happen...
mind to share how to diy carbon paper? I'm not satisfied with my nylon ribbons and modern carbon ribbons are hard to come by.
I still see carbon paper occasionally. I just moved into an apartment and the checklist used it
its so weird using one of these as my lab notebooks! haven't used one of these before, smells nice too. it doesnt have a black sheet between my original and my copy which is bizarre, i wonder how the actual copy is made on the copy sheet
That uses NCR or "No Carbon Required" paper. With NCR paper, an impression coming to the top of the paper makes a mark appear. The original is effectively ordinary paper, the duplicate(s) are NCR paper which with the pressure of the impression makes the ink on the duplicates show. NCR paper forms are one of the reasons dot matrix printers are still around as well as the impression from the pins not only transfers ink from the ribbon to the top copy, but also allows ink to appear on the duplicates.
what about bank tellers or shops when you're putting in a cheque
this is good for small business
