Speaking as someone who's worked in mainframe shops (yes, mainframes
still exist :-) ), I can tell you that most of that multipart paper is
NCR ("no carbon required"), which is pressure-sensitive on the second,
third, etc., copy. Of course either carbon or NCR paper needs to be run
on a dot-matrix or other impact-type printer. High-speed laser printers
used in that environment (which do use the continuous tractor feed
green-bar paper) won't work for multipart paper. Well, at least not
past the top copy... :-)
