IRS requirements for W-2s do NOT mandate PERFORATED forms - correct?

For years I have been printing W2s out on regular paper and cutting them myself with paper cutter.   So, they are already separated.   Anyone know of any reason why this would be wrong?   This is from IRS Publication 1141: (General Rules and Specifications for Substitute Forms W-2 and W-3).    "Employee copies of Form W-2 (Copies B, C, and 2), including those that are printed on a single sheet of paper, must be easily separated. The best method of separation is to provide perforations between the individual copies. Whatever method of separation is used, each copy should be easily distinguished."   This just says they have to be easily separated.    I know the printing industry for tax forms wouldn't like it.  But you shouldn't have to pay $100 for forms that you can print yourself.
