It's more about the fact that dot matrix / impact printers can print on duplicate/triplicate paper. There is carbon in the paper that leaves a mark on the layer underneath it.
You can't do that with a laser or inkjet printer unless you request multiple copies, and then you can't be sure all copies get made.
Carbon forms are still a huge thing in shipping and logistics industries.
- Gordonjcp 4y agoThe problem we have with using lasers at work is that they take a few minutes to warm up, and if you're trying to get a fire appliance out the door in under 60 seconds you can't wait for them. And absolutely no-one has time to run out and get a yellow ink cartridge for an inkjet. Fuck you Epson, you used to be cool.
