The invention discloses a preparation method and technology of a copy paper color developing agent coating. The coating is prepared from, by mass, 10-100 parts of light calcium carbonate, 0-90 parts of kaolin, 5-20 parts of starch, 10-30 parts of latex, 10-60 parts of color developing agent, 0.2-5 parts of compound dispersing agent and 50-80 parts of water. According to the carbonless copy paper CF layer coating formula, the light calcium carbonate which is fine and uniform in particle size is adopted, and the compound dispersing agent is used in the formula, so that the prepared costing is low in viscosity, few in bubble, small in dynamic surface tension, high in color developing speed of applied coated paper, high in color developing density, high in whiteness, uniform in hue, good in coating quality, uniform in coating thickness and capable of meeting the high-speed curtain-type coating requirement, and a good coating effect is achieved.
