Not sure if this is what you need?
This is a manual, handwritten duplicate book — not a thermal paper roll. If you're after paper for an EFTPOS terminal or receipt printer, check our EFTPOS and thermal roll range instead. The Spirax 553 is for businesses that write receipts by hand and keep a copy for their own records.

What's included / how it works
- Each set writes an original plus one carbonless copy — press down once, get both, no carbon sheet needed.
- A protector board sits under each set to stop your writing pressing through onto the next receipt.
- Spiral binding lets the cover and forms fold backward flat, so the book stays open on a counter while you write.
Why this is the right pick
It's genuine Spirax stock — the same NCR business book format used across small businesses, trades, and retail counters in Australia for years. You get exact, checkable specs (279 x 144mm, 80 sets per book, 10 books per pack) rather than a vague description, so you know precisely what's landing at your counter before you order.
Is this the same as a paper roll for my EFTPOS machine or receipt printer?
No — this is a manual, handwritten NCR duplicate book, not a thermal roll. For EFTPOS terminals or receipt printers, check our thermal roll range instead.
What does NCR mean?
NCR (No Carbon Required) paper transfers your writing to the copy below without carbon sheets. A protector board stops it transferring any further.
How many receipts does the pack include?
Each book holds 80 duplicate sets. The pack contains 10 books, so 800 duplicate sets in total.
What size is the book?
Each book measures 279 x 144mm.
Will the book lie flat while I'm writing?
Yes — it's spiral bound, so the cover and forms fold back flat on the counter.
What's the difference between the Spirax 553 and the Spirax 555?
The 553 is a cash receipt book; the 555 is an invoice and statement book. Same NCR carbonless construction, different layout.
Does the carbonless copy work for my own bookkeeping records?
Yes — each set leaves a retained carbonless copy in the book. Check current ATO guidance for specific tax invoice/receipt requirements.
Am I buying one book or a pack?
