Invoice book Printing (NCR)

Updated: Feb 27

In today's digital age, it's easy to assume that physical paperwork is on its way out. But while many documents have gone digital, there are still some tasks where the tried-and-true paper trail reigns supreme. For these essential transactions, invoices, and record-keeping, the humble NCR book.


NCR stands for "No Carbon Required," and these handy booklets are made with special paper that eliminates the need for messy carbon paper. You write on the top sheet, and pressure from your pen transfers the ink to the sheets below, creating 1 2 or 3 clear, smudge-free copies.



  1. Efficient Duplicate Copy Creation: NCR books are designed to create multiple copies of the same document simultaneously without the need for carbon paper. This efficiency is particularly beneficial in industries that require duplicate or triplicate records, such as order forms, invoices, receipts, and delivery notes. By simplifying the process of generating duplicates or triplicates, NCR books help save time and resources.

  2. Accurate Record-Keeping: Maintaining accurate records is crucial for businesses to track transactions, monitor inventory, and ensure accountability. NCR books provide a quick and reliable way to create duplicate copies, reducing the risk of errors and discrepancies. This accuracy is especially vital in financial transactions and legal documentation, where precision is paramount. They can also be numbered sequentially so you know exactly where you're up to and that there will be no duplicates.

  3. User-Friendly and Cost-Effective: NCR books are user-friendly, requiring minimal training for staff to use them effectively. The simplicity of the process also makes them cost-effective. Unlike electronic systems that might involve initial setup costs and ongoing maintenance expenses, NCR books are a one-time investment that provides immediate benefits.

  4. Versatility in Application: NCR books find applications in various industries, from retail and hospitality to healthcare and manufacturing as well as truck and EWP maintenance. They can be customised to suit specific business needs, incorporating company logos, branding elements, and specific form layouts.

  5. Instant Documentation: In fast-paced environments where time is of the essence, NCR books offer the advantage of instant documentation. This is particularly beneficial for fieldwork, service industries, and businesses that require immediate confirmation of transactions. The instantaneous creation of duplicate copies allows for quick sharing and distribution of important information.

  6. Legal Compliance: In certain industries, maintaining hard copies of documents is a legal requirement. NCR books help businesses comply with such regulations by providing a reliable and efficient method for creating duplicate records. This is especially important in industries where audit trails and paper trails are critical for legal purposes.

  7. Cost effective: They are a more cost effective version compared to purchasing software to create and manage your invoicing.
