self-copy paper
自复写纸


Explanation:
所谓self-copy paper，即自复写纸，是本身自带复写功能的纸，通常为多联纸（可打印亦可手写，如多联发票），打印或手写时，不需另加复写材料，只要在第一页上打印或手写，后面各联即可同时得以复写；而carbon paper则是“复写纸（当然，‘复写纸’一词近年有所广义化）”，即夹在两层纸之间进行复写的材料，现在在较发达地区已较少使用，在不带复写功能的纸上进行复写，中间须加“复写纸”。

agree  Wenjer Leuschel (X): 这个称法也有人用，不过我比较赞同“自印复写”的称法。也许是基于汉语音韵和语意之间关联的缘故吧？

  -> Thank you very much!多年前我们都是通过夹上蓝色或深蓝色的“复写纸”来套写多联发票或单据，后来有了所谓的“自复写”功能纸，就开始省事儿了。只记得大家日常这么叫，纸的包装箱上也这么写，而且所用凭证也是手写为主，后来才可以机打了，而现在有些较落后地区仍采手写形式。日常中也有些地方称“自动套写”或“自动套打”，似无纯标准叫法，就扔块砖吧。
