Overview
The short answer, then the detail.
NCR sets are loose carbonless forms, not bound into books or pads. Each set has 2, 3 or 4 parts: a white top copy with yellow, pink and blue copies below. Choose A6, DL, A5 or A4, printed in black or full colour, front only or both sides, from 50 to 5,000 sets.
NCR sets are loose carbonless forms for delivery notes, job sheets, receipts and order forms. What you write on the white top copy transfers through to the copies below, so the customer keeps one and you keep the rest. The sets are supplied loose, not bound into books or pads.
NCR sets: sizes and materials
Sizes are A6 (105 × 148 mm), DL (99 × 210 mm), A5 (148 × 210 mm) and A4 (210 × 297 mm). Each set is 2-part (white, yellow), 3-part (white, yellow, pink) or 4-part (white, yellow, pink, blue).
Printing is black front only, full colour front only, black both sides, or full colour front with a black back. If you would rather have your forms bound, see our NCR Invoice Books and NCR Pads.
Quantities. Order from 50 to 5,000 sets: 50, 100, 250, 500, 1,000, 2,500 or 5,000. The quantity is the number of sets, not sheets. The price each falls as the quantity rises; the table next to the price shows the price each for every quantity.

Frequently asked questions
About ncr sets.
What is the difference between NCR sets, NCR books and NCR pads?
NCR sets are loose, so each set is separate and ready for a clipboard, tray or folder. Our NCR Invoice Books and NCR Pads are separate products with the sets bound together.
How many parts do I need?
Two parts (white, yellow) gives one copy for the customer and one for you. Three parts adds pink, often for the office. Four parts adds blue for a fourth person, such as accounts.
Does the quantity mean sets or sheets?
Sets. If you order 500 three-part sets, you get 500 sets, each with a white, yellow and pink part.
Which size should I choose?
A6 (105 × 148 mm) and DL (99 × 210 mm) suit receipts and short notes. A5 (148 × 210 mm) suits delivery notes and job sheets. A4 (210 × 297 mm) suits invoices and detailed reports.
What artwork do I need to send?
One design is usually used for every part of the form. Send a print-ready PDF in black only or full colour, as chosen, or lay it out with Design it online.
Do you check my file?
Yes. We check uploaded files for resolution, size and bleed so they print well. If you design online, you approve exactly what you see on screen, and that is what we print. Paid artwork services include a proof and 2 rounds of changes.
How long do NCR sets take?
Saver from 11, Standard from 9 and Express from 8 working days to dispatch once your artwork is approved. UK mainland delivery is £7.95, free on orders of £99 and over; Scottish Highlands +£10; islands and Northern Ireland are quoted.

Questions
Buyer questions about this product, answered. Can't see yours? Ask below and our team will reply.
Which sizes can I order NCR Sets in?
NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) at £38.50 up to A4 (210 × 297 mm) at £40.92. Prices are the lowest option for each size. Not sure which fits? Measure the space and ask a question on this page, or call 0161 315 1151.
How does NCR paper copy through without carbon?
NCR stands for "no carbon required". The sheets are coated, so pressure from your pen on the top sheet marks the sheets below. Press firmly with a ballpoint and use the backing board, or slip a card under the set, so writing does not go through to the next set. Felt tips and gel pens do not press hard enough to copy well. NCR Sets are made to order by our UK production partner.
I do not have artwork. Can you design it for me?
The Artwork choice on this page offers: "I will upload print-ready artwork" (free), "Add my text and logo to a clean layout (typesetting)" (£15), "Design it for me from my brief" (£35), "Redraw or vectorise my logo from a low-res file" (£50) and "Design a new logo for me" (£100). Design fees are fixed, show as their own line in the basket and cover the whole quantity of that item. Typesetting includes 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes; design from your brief includes 1 design and 2 rounds of changes. You can also design it yourself in the online designer at no charge.
What should I put on my book layout?
Your business name, logo, address, phone and email; your company number if you are a limited company, and your VAT number only if you are VAT registered. Then the boxes you fill in each time: date, customer, job or item lines, quantities, prices and total, plus payment terms and bank details if you invoice from the book. Leave writing space big enough for real handwriting. Our typesetting option (£15) lays it out for you. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
Can I design these books online?
Yes. Open the designer from this page, pick a starting layout, add your logo, text and photos, and move things around on the canvas. Checks run as you work: sample text left in, text that is too small, items outside the safe area and low resolution images are flagged before you can approve. You approve exactly what you see, then add it to the basket. Designing and previewing is free; the on-screen preview carries a small watermark that is never printed. For NCR Sets, set your file up at the size you order, for example A5 (148 × 210 mm).
How much do NCR Sets cost?
NCR Sets start from £38.50 with size A5 · 148 × 210 mm, parts 2-part (white, yellow) and printing Black, front only on the Saver turnaround. The price in the calculator changes live as you pick the size, material, finishing, quantity and turnaround, so you see the final price before you add to basket. No VAT is added because we are not VAT registered. Delivery is added at checkout: UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it).
Do you charge for delivery?
UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it), so one book at £38.50 on its own pays £7.95, and the charge disappears once your basket reaches £99. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes add £10 once per order. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order.
What printing options are there for NCR Sets?
You can choose black, front only, full colour, front only, black, both sides or full colour front, black back. This sets whether the item is printed in black or full colour, and on one or both sides. Each choice changes the price live in the calculator, so you can compare before you add to basket. NCR Sets are made to order by our UK production partner.
What does the parts option mean on NCR Sets?
You can choose 3-part (white, yellow, pink), 2-part (white, yellow) or 4-part (white, yellow, pink, blue). Each choice changes the price live in the calculator, so you can compare before you add to basket. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
Can I order now and send my artwork later?
Yes. You can upload your file on the product page, or place the order and upload later: we email you after you order. Your designer can send the file to us by email or WhatsApp with your order number, so it does not have to come through you. The turnaround clock starts once your order and artwork are confirmed, so send the file early if you have a deadline. NCR Sets can also be designed in our online designer, where you approve exactly what you see.
What happens if my file is not good enough to print?
Our file check catches the usual problems: the wrong size, no bleed, low resolution images and text too close to the edge. We tell you what needs fixing before anything is printed, and you can send a new file. If you would rather we sort it, the typesetting option (£15, 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes) sets your text and logo on a clean layout. NCR Sets can also be designed in our online designer, where you approve exactly what you see.
What file should I upload?
A PDF at the finished size is best, with fonts embedded or converted to outlines. We also take AI, EPS and SVG, and high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF files. Word, PowerPoint and Canva files are fine as a starting point, but export a full-quality PDF if you can. You can upload up to 3 files of 25 MB each on the product page, or upload later: we email you after you order. For NCR Sets, set your file up at the size you order, for example A5 (148 × 210 mm).
Do I get the print file of my design?
Yes. When you order printing with a design made in our online designer, the high resolution PDF is attached to your order, and once the order is paid you can download it from My Account and your confirmation email. If you only want the file and no printing, approve the design and buy the print-ready PDF for £9.99. It is digital content, so the right to cancel ends once the download starts. For NCR Sets, set your file up at the size you order, for example A5 (148 × 210 mm).
Can I order more than one of these books?
The quantity is part of the options: from 50 up to 5000 (50, 100, 250, 500, 1000, 2500 and 5000). The price shown is the total for the quantity you pick, so divide by the quantity to compare the price each before you order. For a bigger run than the options list, ask for a quote with the size, quantity and deadline. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
What is the smallest order for NCR Sets?
The smallest quantity in the options is 50, then 100, 250, 500 and 1000. The price shown is the total for that quantity, so compare the price each at two or three quantities before you choose. Ask for a quote for anything the options do not list. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
Will the price change at checkout?
Only delivery is added. The goods price you see in the calculator is final, with no VAT added. UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it). Any artwork or design fee you choose shows as its own line in the basket, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
Can I pay for express production on NCR Sets?
Yes. Express makes these books ready to dispatch in 8 working days on the opening option, priced at £44.58 against £38.50 on Saver (11 days). To plan back from a date, add 1 to 3 working days for the courier after dispatch and allow for artwork: production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. If the date is very tight, call 0161 315 1151 before you order.
Do you deliver NCR Sets to the Scottish Highlands?
Yes, with a difference in price. Mainland Scottish Highlands postcodes, for example around Inverness, Fort William, Oban and Thurso, pay the mainland rate plus £10 once per order, even when the order qualifies for free delivery. Northern Ireland, the Scottish islands, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight are quoted before you order: use Get a quote or call 0161 315 1151. We do not deliver outside the UK. On the opening option, NCR Sets are ready to dispatch in 11 working days on Saver or 8 on Express.
Are NCR Sets suitable for electricians?
What you write on the white top copy transfers through to the copies below, so the customer keeps one and you keep the rest. It is part of our Electricians range, which gathers what electricians order for installation, testing and inspection work. Other items in the same range include Car Door Magnetic Signs, Magnetic Van Signs, Business Cards and NCR Invoice Books. You can mix items in one basket, and delivery is free once the goods total reaches £99. NCR Sets are part of our Air Con & Refrigeration, Builders & Construction, Electricians, Fire Safety Engineers, Gas Engineers, Lifting & Inspection, Mechanics & Garages and Plumbers & Heating Engineers ranges.
Are NCR Sets suitable for builders and contractors?
What you write on the white top copy transfers through to the copies below, so the customer keeps one and you keep the rest. It is part of our Builders & Construction range, which gathers what builders and contractors order for building sites. Other items in the same range include Scaffold Banners and Correx Boards. You can mix items in one basket, and delivery is free once the goods total reaches £99. NCR Sets are part of our Air Con & Refrigeration, Builders & Construction, Electricians, Fire Safety Engineers, Gas Engineers, Lifting & Inspection, Mechanics & Garages and Plumbers & Heating Engineers ranges.
I am one of the air conditioning and refrigeration engineers. Would I use these books?
What you write on the white top copy transfers through to the copies below, so the customer keeps one and you keep the rest. It is part of our Air Con & Refrigeration range, which gathers what air conditioning and refrigeration engineers order for air conditioning and refrigeration servicing. Other items in the same range include Car Door Magnetic Signs, Magnetic Van Signs, Business Cards and NCR Invoice Books. You can mix items in one basket, and delivery is free once the goods total reaches £99. NCR Sets are part of our Air Con & Refrigeration, Builders & Construction, Electricians, Fire Safety Engineers, Gas Engineers, Lifting & Inspection, Mechanics & Garages and Plumbers & Heating Engineers ranges.
Will my brand colours print exactly?
Supply CMYK where you can. RGB files are converted to CMYK for print, which can make very bright greens, blues and oranges look slightly duller. If you need a brand colour matched, give us the Pantone reference and we match it as closely as the material allows. Small differences between a screen and the printed item are normal, because screens give off light and print reflects it. For NCR Sets, set your file up at the size you order, for example A5 (148 × 210 mm).
Can I print something different on the back of these books?
Yes. Choose the both-sides printing option and supply two pages in your PDF: page 1 is the front, page 2 the back. The back is a good place for a map, opening hours, a price list or terms, while the front keeps the main message. In the online designer you can switch between front and back. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
What does the designer check before I approve?
It looks for sample text you have not replaced, text below the smallest size that prints clearly, anything too close to the edge or outside the safe area, logos or photos too low in resolution for the size, and items overlapping text. Blocking problems must be fixed before you can approve; warnings you can accept if you are happy. The checks do not read your spelling, so check names, numbers and dates yourself. For NCR Sets, set your file up at the size you order, for example A5 (148 × 210 mm).
Can I change my artwork after ordering?
Contact us straight away on 0161 315 1151 or WhatsApp with your order number. If production has not started we can take a corrected file, or cancel the order and refund you in full. Once production starts the order cannot be changed. Printing that matches the design you approved or the file you supplied is not a fault, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates carefully before you order. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
How do I pay?
By debit or credit card at checkout. Payments are processed securely by Stripe, and we never see or store your full card number. Your order goes into production once payment is taken and your order and artwork are confirmed. For a large or unusual order you can ask for a quote first. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
Do I need an account to order?
No. You can check out as a guest and pay by debit or credit card, processed securely by Stripe. Creating an account at checkout lets you see past orders in My Account and download the print files of designs you made online. Either way you get an order confirmation email and a tracking email when your order is dispatched. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
Can I return these books if I change my mind?
No. These books are printed to your order, and the 14-day right to cancel does not apply to goods made to your specification (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, regulation 28(1)(b)). You can cancel for a full refund before production starts. If an item is faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, your Consumer Rights Act 2015 rights apply and we reprint or refund. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
Can I get a quote for a large order or an unusual size of NCR Sets?
Yes. Use the Get a quote page and tell us the size, quantity, material, deadline and delivery postcode, and attach any artwork you have. We reply by email or WhatsApp with a price. A quote is also the way to go for delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
Can I get a VAT invoice?
No. We are not VAT registered, so we do not charge VAT and cannot issue a VAT invoice. You get an order confirmation email with the items, options and total paid, which works as your receipt. Because no VAT is added, the price you see in the calculator is the price you pay for the goods, with delivery shown at checkout. NCR Sets are made to order by our UK production partner.
Where are NCR Sets made?
NCR Sets are made to order by our UK production partner. Either way, InstantBanners takes the order, checks your file and deals with you from start to finish, and the item is delivered to you by courier. You can reach our Manchester team on 0161 315 1151 or WhatsApp if you have a question before or after you order.
Can someone help me choose the right options for these books?
Yes. Call us on 0161 315 1151 or message us on WhatsApp and tell us where the book will go, how long it needs to last and your deadline. You can also ask a question on this page; our team answers and the question may be published to help other buyers. For a price on something the calculator does not cover, use Get a quote. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
Can I reorder the same book later?
Yes. Order the same product and options again and upload the same file. If you designed it online, the print PDF from your first paid order is in My Account and your confirmation email, ready to upload again. If anything like a phone number or price has changed, update the artwork before you reorder. NCR Sets are made to order by our UK production partner.
Can I order several different designs in one order?
Yes. Add each design to the basket as its own line with its own file or online design, then check out once. Delivery is charged once per order, and becomes free when the goods total reaches £99. If several lines use the same artwork, choose "Same artwork as another item in my basket" so you only pay one design fee. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
What if my order arrives damaged?
Check it when it arrives. If anything is damaged or missing, tell us within 48 hours with photos of the item and the packaging, through the contact form or on WhatsApp, with your order number. Do not send anything back until we reply; we then arrange a reprint or a refund. This does not affect your legal rights, which the returns page explains. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
How should I store these books?
Keep printed paper and card flat, in the box it came in, somewhere dry and away from direct sun and heat. Damp makes paper curl and can stop it feeding through printers; sun fades colours over time. Store NCR books flat and away from heat and pressure, which can mark the copy sheets. NCR Sets start at £38.50 before delivery.
Can these books be recycled?
Unlaminated paper and card go in normal paper recycling. Laminated items, foils and plastic cards are harder to recycle, so check your local council's rules. NCR Sets come in 2 listed sizes, from A5 (148 × 210 mm) to A4 (210 × 297 mm).
What should a tradesperson put on these books?
Your business name and logo, what you do in a few words, your phone number, email and website, and the area you cover. Add your registration number as text if your work needs one. Keep it uncluttered: fewer, larger words read better than a long list of services. NCR Sets are part of our Air Con & Refrigeration, Builders & Construction, Electricians, Fire Safety Engineers, Gas Engineers, Lifting & Inspection, Mechanics & Garages and Plumbers & Heating Engineers ranges.
