Bummer, man. You need a dot matrix to print on carbonless paper, but I’m not sure why anyone needs that these days either.

Dot Matrix printers are still used a lot in areas that require carbon copy forms (legal, real estate etc) because the forms feed well through the punch hole rail guides and the impact will transfer through the carbon copy, unlike ink or laser printers.
