PUNCHING CARBONLESS PAPERS
Occasionally printers report that “hanging punches”
are more of a problem on carbonless papers than
on forms bond and ledger. Hanging punches are
the holes from the marginal punch units that are not
completely detached from the web. This causes the
finished forms to have an unsightly appearance that
in turn is perceived as an indication of poor quality by
the customer or end-user. If there are enough hanging
punches, they may interfere with the collation of forms
or feeding of the forms through the printing device.
