What moves the price
For prescription pad, the drivers are burnout residue, material, print resolution, green strength, compatibility with investment casting, page count, binding, carbon copy — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published supplier pricing shows prescription-pad economics are driven mostly by whether the order is stock versus custom, whether it is 1-part or 2-part, and whether secure/compliance features or a backer sheet are included. For example, APTCO lists laser-sheet prescription forms at $165 for 500, $220 for 1,000, $358 for 2,000, and $434 for 3,000 sheets, while Triple I and Mediscripts show much higher per-script pricing for secure pad formats; e-commerce listings like 360onlineprint and eBay are useful only as rough checks, not ideal wholesale benchmarks. Realistic supplier routes are US trade printers and specialty Rx-form vendors (for compliant secure pads) or commercial offset/digital printers (for generic custom pad sheets), with import/marketplace sources mainly indicating a floor for simple non-compliant pads
