Find an unopened
package of paper. If you look at the label, you will find
an arrow located to the left of the part number that reads
"Print Side Up"
Although you can print on both sides, the arrow indicates
the side of the paper that you must print your primary image.
This is the side that you want the image to carbon down to the
next sheet when you write on it.
Q:
Why is the package labeled STRAIGHT?
A: The paper has been collated in the correct order for the
carbon action to work and is to be used by printers that DO
NOT reverse the paper sequence during printing. If you turn
the paper over, you may solve a sequence problem, but then you
would be printing on the back of the paper and the carbon action
would not work. - The CB transfers the image to a CF coating.

- Open the package and take THE TOP 4 SHEETS, WHICH
SHOULD BE white, CANARY, PINK AND GOLDENROD and place
them on the table. DO NOT TURN THEM OVER.
- Using a pen or pencil, put a large "X" in the middle
of the top sheet. Lift up the top sheet and you will see
that the second sheet has an image as does the third.

You now have a set
that you can insert into your printer's tray for final testing.
Depending on your printer type and it's paper path, the paper
will either go face up, or face down. Since you already know
that the carbonless will image, the rest of the testing should
be easy. DO NOT USE THE SAME TEST SET MORE THAN ONCE.

If the set prints
on the correct side of the paper, but is in the wrong paper
color sequence, it is possible that you may have needed to order
REVERSE SEQUENCE. For more information, review our
Sequence
Test Procedure.
