    Hello everyone, I'm looking for some help. I've been using a brand of carbonless that runs okay but is rather pricey. Does anyone know of a reliable source for quality carbonless but at more reasonable pricing? I'm looking for both Offset and Digital. A little better brand of service wouldn't hurt either.

    I might be able to help you out on this one. About three months ago I received a phone call from a sales rep from Guy's E Paper. His name is Brad Thompson. He said that he was following up on a mailer he had sent to my region. To be quite honest I didn't remember the flyer and more then likely I put it with other mailers of this sort- into the circular file. I let Brad go through his spiel and he actually convinced me to try a ream of their paper through their sample ream program. I tried a ream of 8 1/2 x 11, 4 part offset carbonless. They manufacture this type of paper and it's called e. paper brand. Tried the ream out and liked it enough to try case. Price wise they're pretty competitive but what I really liked is exactly what Brad said would happen. The run-ability of this paper is really good. I can run it faster and I really have eliminated the problems of curling and jamming I was encountering with other brands. I've since ordered quite a few cases of their offset carbonless and lately I've been trying out their digital carbonless and I've been really impressed by the quality of this paper, also. Keep in mind, if you call them, if Brad is not available or not your states rep, I've also dealt with another salesman by the name of Tom Parbs. He goes by the nickname of "The Marine" and he's very knowledgeable, along with very enthusiastic. I believe he is the Senior Sales Executive there but I'm not positive. Either one of these guys can help you out. The # to the office is 1-888-932-7273. Good Luck.

    I've been using Excel, NCR and Nekoosa U20 brands. No offset problems on press. The Excel seems to run best on the copier. Other 2 were terrible.

    Joe good to hear some feedback on that e brand NCR. I'm going to call for a sample ream and see how it runs. Nekoosa is around $100 a carton for 3-4 part 8.5x11 out here. What about a compatable padding glue?
