I have a file folder for each student that I keep in an “in-box” on my desk. If a student is absent when worksheets, etc. are passed out, I just put a copy in the student’s folder right away. I also put graded work for absentees in the folder. Saves time looking for the papers they need.
I put a little green dot in the upper right corner of my master copy of all worksheets, tests, etc. That way I don’t get paranoid about giving out my last copy. The one with the green circle is always one I keep.

I keep my originals separate by using a yellow highlighter to put an “o” for original at the top. Yellow doesn’t show up on a copy machine, so I can easily make more copies if needed.
At last! Someone who undertnsads! Thanks for posting!
