View Full Version : Question about priting receipts for outside orders

Ok, I know this is going to sound ridiculously stupid... but bear with me.

I have a pack of the P3 receipts to use for outside orders and catalog show orders. But these are three ply order forms... how do you use them? Do you seperate them and put each one through the printer individually? Or does the printer actually make enough of an impact on the paper for the carbon to copy through to the next sheet? Wouldn't they get stuck in my printer if I put it through as is, with all three sheets attached?

I told you it was dumb! I know others just print out the back of the OOF and print the receipt out on that, but I'd like to use the receipts I have so I really don't want to do that. I've been pondering this for a while, so please help, lol.

Thanks! :D

Putting the 3-ply receipts through your printer would just be a mess- since the P3 receipts won't be formatted to fit those receipts. You have to purchase the official P3 receipts on the supply order form.

OR you can hand write their order onto those 3ply receipts and then mail that to them so they have the guarantee info on the back.

I'm confused. What I have ARE the P3 receipts- they are the blank receipts with the terms and conditions on the back. They are not the receipts where the customers write in their items line by line at a show.

But they are still 3-ply. This is why I'm so confused... I don't understand how you're supposed to print on these?

They are 3-ply??? They look like regular printer paper? I wonder if they changed them?
Can't help you then. The p3 receipts I have look like regular printer paper with the guarantee on the back, and the almost-blank on the front. I just put them in my manual-feed tray and print as normal.

Could you try one and see??

Bobbi it has been a LONG week! LMAO!!!

They are NOT 3 ply, they are, in fact, just like regular printer paper as you described. Nevermind!!!!!!!

Silly me! :p :p :p

Thanks for helping me figure it out and pull my head out of the clouds!

I am still new (just ended my 90 days earlier this month), so I'm trying to figure out if I'm doing this right or wrong. I have been printing the P3 receipts and then copying the guarantee on the back from my 3 ply cooking show order forms. Will that work, or do I need the Pampered Chef P3 printer paper?

TIA,
Tracy

Tracy that is totally fine, as long as the guarantee is on there!
