Printing Business Forms
Date: Jan 20, 2003
Business forms are usually documents (sales contracts, invoices, receipts, purchase orders) used by companies to manage their accounting and finances. They are needed in any business, large or small, and come in various styles and sizes. Business forms can be printed straight from your computer or can be ordered for manual input. They also can be custom printed to reflect your company logo.
Computer forms can be ordered in Single, 2, 3, 4, or even 5-Part format. Different messages (e.g. Customer Copy, Accounting Copy, Shipping, ...) can be printed individually on each part. To save money, you may print all information the same for all parts. The most common size for computer forms are 9? x 11? and 9? x 5 ?? including the perforated computer feed punch holes on both left and right sides. Please make sure you have a dot-matrix printer for printing information on computer forms.
Manual forms can be ordered in 2, 3, 4, or 5-Part format. Loose sets with numbering are the most common format. You can add more features to suit your own use; for example, you can add stapling, perforated lines, extra numbers, wrap around paper jackets, or you can increase the paper weight for the bottom copy.
