Multi-part, Multi-Color Invoice Forms

["Rick Rayburn" <the400man@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For many moons, companies have used multi-copied, multi-colored invoice 
forms for a variety of reasons: "the whites go to the customer", "the pinks 
go to the sales reps", "the yellows go to the file cabinet", and on and 
on...These forms were always produced on line printers so your print quality 
is not as strong as it could be. We'd love to produce the invoices from 
laser printers but I cannot seem to work out how multi-colored forms would 
be handled this way other than stacking multiple 8x11 colorized standard 
paper, piggy backed in groups of whatever, and then running the invoices 
with the number of copies you want for each one. That sounds completely dain 
bramaged to me.

Is this old fashioned office edict a dying dinosaur? Are people just 
producing multiple laser copies, one form type, one color and distributing 
them...maybe with an "identification label" or something to indicate who 
gets them? I hope so or else I'd love to hear someone elses laser solution. 
Has anyone done a cost comparison between the number of extra 8x11 paper to 
the original 4 part forms?

Thanks for the time.
