2. Most common is a light blue
you can buy light blue copy pencils at office supply stores that allow you to mark up documents - and make photocopies that do not show the markings.

3. Light blue.
You can buy blue pencils specifically for that reason.

Newspapers used to be pasted up on blue-lined paper, too.

4. Many modern photocopiers are panchromatic.
And will copy most anything.

5. A kind of 'baby blue'
Pencils of this colour are sold in office supply stores under the name 'NonRepro Blue.'
