Interestingly enough, the paper that multi-copy receipts are printed on is called NCR Paper. Guess what NCR stands for? No Carbon Required. So officially they are not "Carbon" copies. Now for the purists, NCR also stands for the company which first developed the carbonless paper, National Cash Register, in Dayton Ohio.

oops - sorry John for the double wammy, I hadn't realized that Kathie had already commented on the carbonless paper!
