NCR

Many departments misunderstand carbonless paper (NCR means no carbon required). There are 500 sheets of paper in a ream. When a ream of carbonless paper is printed and padded the finished product is in sets(original plus copies =one set). In order to calculate the amount of sets in a ream, first determine how many copies you need and divide 500 by the number of parts required. The following table may help you:

NCR Info
Number of Parts Total Sets
2 part 250 sets
3 part 167 sets
4 part 125 sets
5 part 100 sets
6 part 83 sets
