Is my Citizen printer thermal or dot matrix?

Citizen CT-S series printers (CT-S310, CT-S601, CT-S651, CT-S751, CT-S801, CT-S851, CT-E351) are thermal printers that use coated thermal paper with no ribbon. The CD-S series and older iDP models are dot matrix printers that use plain bond paper plus an ink ribbon cartridge.

What paper does the Citizen CT-S801 use?

The Citizen CT-S801 uses 3 1/8 inch (80mm) thermal receipt paper, the standard width for full-size POS printers. Common roll lengths are 230 and 273 feet.

Custom Printing Services

Put Your Logo Where Your Customers Are Already Looking

Every order that leaves your counter carries paper with it; a receipt in the bag, a band around the rolled silverware. That paper is going to exist either way. The only question is whether it's blank or working for you.

Custom printing is one of the quieter services we've offered over our 35+ years in the paper business, and it's the one customers most often don't realize we do until they ask. So here's the full picture: what can carry your logo, how the process works, and a shortcut option for businesses that want branded paper without a custom print run.

What we can print your logo on

Custom thermal receipt rolls

Custom napkin bands

Custom thermal receipt rolls. Your logo, promotional messaging, coupons, return policy, or survey QR code, printed on the receipt stock your POS already uses. The receipt is the one piece of paper nearly every customer handles, and the back and header space most businesses leave blank is effectively free ad space you already paid for. Browse the options on our thermal receipt roll paper page, custom printing is available on standard widths, so there's no printer compatibility puzzle to solve.

Custom napkin bands. For restaurants, caterers, and hotels, the band around a rolled silverware set sits at eye level on every table you set. Custom napkin bands are available in one, two, and three-color printing, self-adhesive so your rolls stay closed through transport and service.

The middle option: pre-printed "Thank You" rolls

Pre-printed "Thank You" thermal rolls, 48/box

Full custom printing involves artwork, proofs, plate setup, and minimum order quantities, worthwhile at volume, but not every business is there yet, and sometimes you just need branded-feeling paper by next week.

That's what our pre-printed "Thank You" thermal rolls are for: 3 1/8" x 230' rolls with a "Thank You" message already printed, sold by the case like standard stock. No artwork, no setup, no waiting on a proof, no custom minimums. It's the difference between a receipt that feels finished and one that feels generic, at a price much closer to plain rolls than to a custom run.

Option	Branding	Setup & Minimums	Best For
Plain rolls	None	None — order by the case	Back-of-house printers nobody sees
Pre-printed "Thank You" rolls	Branded feel	None — ships like standard stock	Customer-facing registers before custom volume pencils out
Full custom printing	Your logo	Artwork, proof, plates, minimums	Volume buyers who want every impression to be theirs

How the custom process works

Send us your artwork. Vector files (AI, EPS, or high-resolution PDF) print cleanest. A logo screenshot pulled from your website usually can't hold a crisp edge at print size.
We confirm colors and quote. Pricing on custom work is driven largely by color count, and counting the colors in a logo is less obvious than it sounds because gradients and shadows count differently than solid fills. Our guide on how to correctly calculate colors in a logo walks through it before you submit, and can save you a revision cycle.
You approve a proof. Nothing goes to production until you've signed off on exactly how it will look.
Production and delivery. Custom runs carry longer lead times than stock orders, so if you're printing for an event or a launch date, build that into your timeline and call us with the date and we'll tell you honestly whether it's achievable.
Reorders are the easy part. Once your plates exist, reordering is a phone call.

When custom printing makes business sense

The honest math: custom printing carries setup costs and minimums, so the per-unit premium shrinks as volume grows. A single-location cafe running one register may be better served by pre-printed "Thank You" rolls until volume builds. A multi-location operation, a caterer setting hundreds of tables a week, or any business already buying paper by the pallet is usually leaving cheap impressions on the table by running blank stock.

Not sure which side of that line you're on? That's exactly the kind of question we'd rather answer before you order than after. Call 480-929-9000 with your monthly paper usage and we'll run the numbers with you, including telling you plainly if pre-printed is the smarter buy for now.

Can You Recycle Thermal Receipt Paper? (Mostly No — Here's What to Do Instead)

2026-07-21T13:01:06-05:00

Thermal Paper Disposal Guide

It feels like the right instinct: receipts are paper, paper goes in the recycling bin. But for the receipts coming out of most cash registers and card terminals, that instinct is wrong — and well-intentioned recycling can actually do more harm than tossing them in the trash. Here's the honest answer, and what it means for how a business handles its paper.

Why most receipts don't belong in the recycling bin

Thermal paper doesn't print with ink. It prints because the paper's coating contains a chemical developer that darkens under the print head's heat. For decades that developer was bisphenol A (BPA), and in most paper sold today it's the closely related bisphenol S (BPS).

That coating is the problem. Recycling mills can't separate the developer chemicals from the paper fiber, so when thermal receipts get pulped alongside regular paper, the bisphenols carry through into the recycled product — which is how chemicals from receipts can end up in items made from recycled pulp, like napkins, paper towels, and food packaging. They also exit the mill through wastewater. That's why a number of municipal recycling programs explicitly list thermal receipts as a contaminant and tell residents to keep them out of the bin entirely.

Don't compost them either

Composting feels even greener and is actually worse. The developer coating doesn't break down the way plain paper does, so composting thermal receipts moves those chemicals directly into soil — and if it's a garden compost, potentially into food you grow. Burning them at home is also discouraged, since heating the coating releases the phenols into the air.

Disposal Method	Standard Thermal Receipts	Why
Recycling bin	No	Developer chemicals contaminate recycled pulp and mill wastewater; many programs classify receipts as a contaminant.
Compost	No	The coating doesn't break down and moves chemicals directly into soil.
Burning at home	No	Heat releases the phenols in the coating into the air.
Trash	Yes	In a landfill the coating stays bound to the paper instead of migrating into pulp, water, or soil.
Recycling — phenol-free paper	Ask locally	No bisphenols to contaminate the stream, but acceptance varies by facility. See below.

So what do you actually do with them?

For standard thermal receipts, the unglamorous answer is the trash. It's the rare case where the garbage bin is the environmentally responsible choice.

For a business, though, the more useful question is upstream: what can you change so less of this paper exists in the first place?

Print only on request where your workflow allows it. A surprising share of customers never take the receipt anyway.
Trim your receipt template. Oversized logos, long promotional footers, and duplicate copies burn paper length on every transaction. A shorter template means fewer rolls purchased and fewer receipts thrown away — the one sustainability move that also directly cuts your supply cost.
Rethink the paper itself — which brings us to the exception.

Does phenol-free paper change the answer?

Partially, and it's worth understanding exactly how much.

Phenol-free thermal paper uses developers with no bisphenols at all — alternatives based on ascorbic acid (vitamin C chemistry), urea-based developers, or newer technologies that skip the developer entirely. That removes the contamination concern that gets thermal paper rejected from recycling streams in the first place.

The honest caveat: acceptance still depends on your local facility. Many recyclers can't distinguish phenol-free thermal paper from standard thermal paper at the sorting line, so some programs reject all of it as a blanket rule. If recyclability matters to your operation, call your hauler or municipal program and ask specifically whether phenol-free thermal paper is accepted. Policy varies more by facility than by chemistry.

Even where the local answer is no, phenol-free paper still reduces what your staff and customers are exposed to with every receipt handled — which is why it's the direction regulation is heading anyway. Washington now requires it, and California is moving. Our guide to the Washington ban and California Prop 65 covers the compliance side in detail.

What this means for your paper order

If your business fields sustainability questions from customers or runs an internal green program, your receipt paper choice determines what's even possible downstream:

Standard BPA-free thermal rolls remain the workhorse — but they belong in the trash after use, not the recycling bin, and it's worth telling your team that so good intentions don't contaminate your office paper recycling.

Phenol-free thermal rolls remove the bisphenol issue at the source, satisfy Washington's requirements, avoid Prop 65 warning obligations in California, and open the door to recyclability where local facilities accept them.

Related: the same developer chemistry also determines how long printed receipts stay readable. If fading records are a problem for your bookkeeping, see our guide on how to keep thermal paper from fading.

Not sure which paper spec fits your printer and your state's rules?

PaperRolls-N-More has supplied receipt paper to businesses nationwide since 1989 — all of our thermal rolls are BPA-free, and phenol-free options are in stock for businesses ready to make the switch. Contact us or call 480-929-9000 and a real person will sort it out with you before you order.

Citizen Printer Paper & Ribbons Buying Guide

Printer Paper & Ribbon Buying Guide

Citizen Printer Paper Rolls & Ribbons: Find Your Model

Citizen builds some of the most reliable POS hardware in the industry, from the workhorse CT-S801 thermal receipt printer to the CD-S500 dot matrix line that's been running in kitchens for decades. The hardware rarely fails; running out of the right paper or ribbon is almost always what takes a Citizen printer out of service. Here's the exact roll or ribbon for your model.

First: thermal or dot matrix?

Citizen's lineup splits the same way Epson's does. The CT-S series (CT-S310, CT-S601, CT-S651, CT-S751, CT-S801, CT-S851, CT-E351, and similar) are thermal printers — no ribbon, coated paper. The CD-S series and older iDP models are dot matrix printers that strike an ink ribbon against plain bond paper. If your printer takes a ribbon cartridge, jump to the dot matrix section below.

Citizen thermal printers: CT-S series

Citizen's full-size CT-S thermal receipt printers run 3 1/8" (80mm) thermal paper, the same standard width used by most modern POS systems:

Citizen Model	Paper	Where to Order
CT-S801 / CT-S801II CT-S851 / CT-S751	3 1/8" thermal	3 1/8" x 230' thermal rolls, 50/case
CT-S651 / CT-S601 / CT-S601II	3 1/8" thermal	3 1/8" x 273' extended-length rolls or all 3 1/8" thermal
CT-S310 / CT-S310II CT-E351	3 1/8" thermal	Browse all 3 1/8" thermal rolls
Compact 58mm models (CT-S281 and similar)	2 1/4" thermal	2 1/4" x 50' BPA-free rolls or all 2 1/4" thermal

All of our thermal rolls are BPA-free. Note that several CT-S models can be converted between 80mm and 58mm with a partition spacer, so if a previous owner reconfigured yours, measure the roll currently loaded rather than assuming the factory width.

Running a CT-S601II or CT-S751 with linerless label media? Citizen's liner-free capable models take sticky thermal media instead of standard receipt rolls. Browse sticky thermal rolls or use our Sticky Thermal Label Buying Guide to match adhesive strength to bags, cups, or containers.

Citizen dot matrix printers: CD-S500 series and iDP models

Citizen's impact printers take plain bond or carbonless paper plus an ink ribbon, and the ribbon part number is what matters most when reordering:

Citizen Model	Ribbon	Paper
CD-S500 / CD-S501 / CD-S503	IR-91 / M-910 ribbons, black or purple	3" x 165' 1-ply bond, 50/box or 3" x 90' 2-ply carbonless for a kitchen copy
iDP-562 and IR-51 compatible models	IR-51 / IDP-562 ribbons, purple, 6/box	Browse 1-ply bond rolls by width
Citizen 120D / 180D	120D / 180D ribbons, black, 6/box	Standard bond rolls — browse by ply

If your ribbon model isn't listed here, check the cartridge itself; Citizen prints the IR part number directly on the plastic housing. Then browse the full Citizen printer ribbons category to match it.

Why the ribbon color matters

Purple ribbons are the traditional choice for kitchen and warehouse impact printers because the dye reads clearly on white and canary bond even as the ribbon ages. Black ribbons produce a crisper, more document-like print preferred for customer-facing receipts. Functionally either works in the same cartridge slot, so choose based on where the printout ends up.

Custom printed rolls for your Citizen printer

Any of our 3 1/8" thermal rolls can be custom printed with your logo, promotional messaging, coupons, or terms and conditions. Start with custom printed 3 1/8" x 230' rolls, one-color logo, sized for the CT-S801 and the rest of the full-width CT-S line.

Not sure which Citizen model you have?

The model number is printed on a label on the bottom or rear of the unit. If the label's worn off or you'd rather just ask, talk to a real person at 480-929-9000, or contact us with a photo of your printer and the roll it's running. PaperRolls-N-More has supplied POS paper and printer ribbons since 1989, and Citizen hardware has been on our compatibility lists nearly that whole time.

How to Choose the Right Thermal Paper Roll

2026-07-09T12:37:34-05:00

Choosing the right thermal paper roll size starts with three key dimensions: width, outer diameter, and core size. With width being the most critical measurement, since a roll that is too wide simply will not fit your printer. Match these specs to your printer model to avoid jams, wasted paper, and unnecessary costs.

Key Takeaways

Thermal paper rolls come in 7 distinct types, each suited for specific printer models and industries.
Match the roll width exactly to your printer's specifications to avoid paper jams and misprints.
Receipt printers in retail and restaurants most commonly use 80mm or 57mm wide thermal rolls.
Roll diameter determines how long the paper lasts between changes, directly affecting operational efficiency.

What Do You Need Before Choosing a Size?

Gathering the right information before ordering Thermal Paper Rolls prevents costly printer jams, wasted inventory, and operational downtime. Ordering the wrong roll width forces businesses to reorder immediately. A disruption no busy retail counter or restaurant kitchen can afford.

POS Paper serves a specific range of hardware, and each device has fixed dimensional requirements. POS Systems, cash registers, gas pumps, and Credit Card Terminals all rely on thermal printing technology, which uses a heat element to activate the image — eliminating the need for ink or ribbons entirely. Mobile Printers add another layer of variation, as compact form factors often require narrower roll widths than countertop units.

What measurements does a business need before buying Paper Rolls?

Follow these steps before placing any order for Paper Rolls:

Locate the printer manual. The manual lists the exact roll width the device accepts.
Measure the existing roll. Use a ruler to measure the width of a roll currently in use.
Note the core size. Record the inner core diameter, as mismatched cores prevent proper loading.
Confirm the roll diameter. Check the maximum roll diameter the printer compartment accommodates.

Does the type of terminal affect which size to order?

Different terminals accept different roll widths, so businesses cannot assume one size fits all hardware. paperrolls n more stocks rolls compatible with a wide range of terminals and printers, making cross-referencing straightforward. Consulting the device manual remains the single most reliable prerequisite before purchasing.

How Does Width Determine the Right Fit?

Width is the single most critical dimension when selecting Thermal Paper Rolls for any printer. A roll that is too wide physically cannot load into the printer housing, and a roll that is too narrow causes misfeeds — wasting paper and disrupting operations during peak hours.

Standard widths for POS Paper fall into two primary categories: 57mm (2 1/4 inches) for compact devices. 80mm (3 1/8 inches) for full-size POS Systems. Other widths exist for specialized hardware, so operators must confirm their printer's exact specification before ordering.

PaperRolls-N-More stocks Paper Rolls across a wide spectrum of widths — from 1 1/2" through 8 1/2" — including 2 1/4", 3 1/8", 4 1/4", and 4 3/8", ensuring compatibility with everything from handheld Mobile Printers to wide-format receipt systems and Credit Card Terminals.

What Width Do Most POS Printers Use?

The 3 1/8" (80mm) roll is the dominant choice for retail stores, restaurants, and supermarkets. Printers using this width deliver more printable surface area, making the format ideal for detailed receipts that include logos, promotional messaging, or lengthy item lists.

How Do Operators Confirm the Correct Width?

Follow these steps to identify the right width before placing an order:

Remove the current roll from the printer and locate the width printed on the roll's packaging or label.
Measure the paper strip with a ruler if no packaging is available — measure across the paper face, not the core.
Cross-reference the printer manual or the manufacturer's website to confirm the maximum accepted width.
Match that measurement to the corresponding product listing on PaperRolls-N-More's catalog, filtering by width to narrow results instantly.

How Does Roll Length Affect Your Operations?

Roll length directly determines how often staff must stop to replace paper rolls, and choosing the wrong length costs high-volume businesses measurable time and labor every single shift. Operations that run short rolls through busy periods face repeated interruptions — each swap pulling an employee away from serving customers.

PaperRolls-N-More (also known as paperrolls n more) carries thermal paper rolls spanning a wide range of lengths, from under 100 feet up to 3,000 feet, giving businesses at every volume level a precisely matched option. That range means a low-traffic kiosk and a high-volume restaurant chain can both source the right roll from a single supplier.

Which Roll Length Works Best for High-Volume Environments?

Extended-length rolls — such as the 3 1/8" x 230' format. Are engineered specifically to reduce roll changes in demanding environments like retail stores, restaurants, hospitality venues, and convenience stores. Fewer roll changes mean fewer service interruptions and lower labor overhead during peak hours.

How Should Businesses Order to Minimize Supply Disruptions?

Businesses that rely on POS Systems, Credit Card Terminals, and Mobile Printers should consolidate orders around bulk-friendly options. The 3 1/8" x 230' POS paper rolls are available in free-shipping pack configurations, making bulk ordering cost-effective without adding freight costs. Follow these steps to optimize roll selection:

Identify the daily transaction volume for each printer location.
Match that volume to the appropriate roll length from PaperRolls-N-More's range.
Select a free-shipping bulk pack for the highest-traffic terminals.
Schedule reorders before stock drops below a one-week supply.

Which Core Size and Diameter Should You Match?

Thermal Paper Rolls ship in eight distinct core sizes — coreless, 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 11/16", 3/4", 1", and 2" — and matching the wrong core to a printer causes misfeeds, jams, and wasted inventory. Three dimensions define every Paper Roll: width, diameter, and core size. Loading a roll with an incompatible core wastes an entire roll and halts transactions at the register.

Before selecting a roll, operators must confirm all three measurements from the printer's manual or the label on the existing roll box.

Prerequisites: Have the printer model number and a spent roll (or its packaging) on hand before beginning.

Measure the core inner diameter of a spent roll using calipers or a ruler. Match that measurement exactly to one of the eight standard core sizes PaperRolls-N-More carries.
Record the outer roll diameter to confirm the roll fits inside the printer's paper compartment without binding.
Note the roll width — the most critical dimension — to ensure the paper feeds straight through the mechanism.
Select coreless rolls when the printer model supports coreless loading. PaperRolls-N-More (also known as paperolls n more) offers coreless thermal rolls as a dedicated product category, eliminating core waste entirely.
Order a test quantity before committing to bulk purchases, especially when switching core sizes on POS Systems, Credit Card Terminals, or Mobile Printers.

What is the most common core size for POS paper rolls?

The 7/16" core is the most widely stocked option in the POS Paper category at PaperRolls-N-More, appearing across the broadest range of roll widths. Most countertop receipt printers designed for retail and restaurant POS Systems are built around this core diameter.

Do coreless rolls work in standard receipt printers?

Coreless rolls require a printer specifically designed to accept them — standard spindle-based printers cannot feed coreless stock reliably. Businesses should verify printer compatibility before switching to coreless Paper Rolls to avoid costly misfeeds.

What Mistakes Should You Avoid When Ordering?

Ordering the wrong Paper Rolls size is the single most damaging mistake businesses make when stocking printing supplies. Mismatched dimensions cause printer jams, drive up wasted paper costs, and force emergency reorders that disrupt daily operations.

Before placing any order, procurement managers should verify three measurements: roll width, roll diameter, and core size. POS Systems, Credit Card Terminals, and Mobile Printers each have distinct paper specifications. Treating them as interchangeable leads directly to equipment downtime.

Follow these steps to avoid the most common ordering errors:

Confirm printer model compatibility first. Check the printer manual or the label on the existing roll box before selecting any product.
Match all three dimensions. Width alone is not enough — diameter and core size must also align with the printer's paper compartment.
Verify BPA-free certification. Thermal Paper Rolls that meet safety standards protect both staff and customers during high-volume transaction printing.
Order in bulk with a reorder plan. Running out of POS Paper mid-shift costs more in lost productivity than bulk pricing ever saves.

What happens if businesses order the wrong thermal paper size?

Using the wrong size causes printer jams, wastes paper, and increases overall supply costs. PaperRolls-N-More stocks a broad range of paperrolls n more compatible sizes to help businesses match the correct roll to every device.

How can businesses prevent running out of critical POS supplies?

Dedicated account representatives at PaperRolls-N-More manage reorder schedules so businesses never exhaust critical supplies unexpectedly. PaperRolls-N-More also offers free commercial shipping and bulk wholesale discounts, making consistent restocking straightforward for operations of any size.

Choosing the right thermal paper roll size comes down to knowing your printer's specifications, understanding your transaction volume. Matching the roll dimensions to your operational needs. When those three factors align, you avoid costly jams, wasted paper, and unnecessary downtime. At PaperRolls-N-More, we've spent more than three decades helping businesses across every industry get this decision right. And we bring that same expertise to every order, every reorder, and every customer we serve.

Epson Printer Paper Buying Guide: Thermal, Bond & Ribbons by Model

2026-07-07T17:05:51-05:00

Printer Paper Buying Guide

Epson Printer Paper Buying Guide

Epson makes two very different families of POS printers, thermal and dot matrix, and they don't take the same paper. Order the wrong type and it either won't print at all or won't fit. Here's how to find the right roll for your Epson model in under a minute.

Step 1: Is your printer thermal or dot matrix?

This is the fork in the road that determines everything else.

Thermal printers print by heating the paper directly. There's no ribbon, no ink, and the paper has a slightly glossy, coated feel on the print side.
Dot matrix (impact) printers strike an ink ribbon against plain bond paper, the same way an old typewriter works. If your printer uses a ribbon cartridge, it's an impact printer.

Quick check: if your printer has a ribbon cartridge slot, it's an impact printer. No ribbon slot means thermal.

Epson thermal printers: TM-T88, TM-T20, and M244A / M129 series

Epson's TM-T88 series (TM-T88II through TM-T88V), TM-H5000, TM-H6000, and TM-T20 all take 3 1/8" thermal paper. In our catalog, this shows up under two related paper families:

Epson M244A paper — 3 1/8" thermal rolls in multiple lengths (165', 230', 273') and colors, sized for TM-T88II/III/IV/V, TM-H5000, TM-H6000
Epson M129 series paper — the same 3 1/8" width in 220', 230', and 273' lengths for other Epson thermal models
Epson TM-T20 compatible paper
Running an Epson alongside Star or Samsung units on the same line? This 3 1/8" x 230' case covers all three brands so you can stock one roll instead of three

Roll length matters more than people think. A 273' roll holds noticeably more receipts than a 165' roll in the same 3 1/8" width, which means fewer roll changes during a rush. If your printer sits at a busy register, size up in length rather than reordering more often.

All of our Epson thermal paper is BPA-free.

Epson dot matrix printers: TM-U220 (M188) and TM-U200 (M119)

If your Epson has a ribbon, it's almost certainly a TM-U220 or TM-U200 series printer, and both take 3" bond paper rather than thermal:

Epson M188 A/B/D paper fits the TM-U220A, TM-U220B, and TM-U220D, in 1-ply bond (3" x 165' or 3" x 150'), 2-ply carbonless (3" x 90'), and 3-ply carbonless
Epson M119 series paper fits the TM-U200A, TM-U200B, and TM-U200D in the same range of ply options

1-ply, 2-ply, or 3-ply, what's the difference? 1-ply gives you a single white copy, fine for a straightforward receipt. 2-ply adds a canary copy underneath for a kitchen ticket or record copy without reprinting. 3-ply adds a third pink or yellow sheet, useful when three departments each need their own copy of the same order. Match the ply count to how many physical copies your workflow actually needs, since each additional ply costs more per roll.

Don't forget the ribbon

Every Epson dot matrix printer needs an ink ribbon, and running low mid-shift is one of the most common reasons a kitchen printer suddenly prints faded or blank tickets. The Epson ERC-30/34/38 ribbon fits the TM-U220 and TM-U200 series and is available in black indelible ink or black/red. Check whether your printer uses one-color or two-color printing before ordering. Browse the full range of Epson printer ribbons if you're not sure which cartridge fits.

Running an Epson TM-L90 for linerless labels?

If your setup includes an Epson TM-L90 for bag, cup, or container labeling rather than standard receipts, you're in linerless sticky media territory instead of standard thermal roll paper. See our Sticky Thermal Label Buying Guide for adhesive strength and width recommendations.

Quick reference

Printer Family	Paper Type	Width	Ribbon Needed?
TM-T88 II/III/IV/V, TM-H5000/6000	Thermal	3 1/8"	No
TM-T20	Thermal	3 1/8"	No
M129 series models	Thermal	3 1/8"	No
TM-U220 (M188 A/B/D)	Bond / carbonless	3"	Yes — ERC-30/34/38
TM-U200 (M119 A/B/D)	Bond / carbonless	3"	Yes — ERC-30/34/38
TM-L90	Linerless sticky media	Varies	No

Sunmi Printer Paper Rolls: Model-by-Model Sizing Guide

2026-06-30T16:04:20-05:00

If you're running Sunmi hardware at the register, in the kitchen, or out on a delivery route, you already know the one thing that'll bring a smart terminal to a dead stop faster than a software update: the wrong roll of paper. Sunmi builds a genuinely wide lineup — desktop terminals, handheld mobile units, kiosks, standalone kitchen printers and each one is built around a specific print head width. Load the wrong width and you're either jamming the printer or wasting half a roll's worth of paper margin.

We've been supplying thermal paper to POS operators, restaurants, and retailers since 1989, so we put together this guide the way we'd walk a customer through it over the phone: by Sunmi model, by paper width, no guesswork required.

Why Sunmi Paper Sizing Trips People Up

Sunmi's printers fall into a few hardware families, and each family was engineered around a particular thermal head width — either 58mm (2 1/4") or 80mm (3 1/8"). The model number on the unit (V2, V2 Pro, P2, T2, K2, and so on) tells you which family it belongs to, and that tells you which roll width and length it needs. Mix that up and the paper either won't track through the print mechanism or you'll be changing rolls twice as often as you need to.

Below is the model-by-model breakdown, organized the same way we'd walk you through it on the phone: by hardware type, then by the exact roll that fits.

Non-Phenol Thermal Paper Requirements: What Washington and California Businesses Need to Know

2026-06-12T15:58:55-05:00

As regulations surrounding thermal receipt paper continue to evolve, businesses across the country are being asked to pay closer attention to the materials used in the type of paper rolls they purchase every day.

Recent legislation in Washington State, along with California's ongoing Proposition 65 requirements, is accelerating the industry's shift away from thermal paper containing Bisphenol A (BPA) and Bisphenol S (BPS). For businesses that rely on receipt printers, understanding these changes is becoming increasingly important for maintaining compliance and avoiding supply disruptions.

In this article, we'll explain what these regulations mean, how they affect thermal paper suppliers and businesses, and how PaperRolls-N-More has taken proactive steps to provide compliant alternatives.

Understanding BPA, BPS, and Non-Phenol Thermal Paper

Thermal receipt paper uses a heat-sensitive coating to produce printed images without the need for ink or ribbons. Historically, many thermal papers relied on chemical developers such as BPA (Bisphenol A) or BPS (Bisphenol S) as part of that coating.

Over the past several years, concerns regarding potential health and environmental impacts have led regulators and manufacturers to seek alternatives.

As a result, many businesses have already transitioned away from BPA-containing products. The next major shift involves moving away from BPS-containing thermal papers and adopting non-phenol thermal paper products that do not use BPA, BPS, or other phenol-based developers.

Washington State's Thermal Paper Ban

Under Washington State's Safer Products for Washington initiative, thermal receipt paper containing intentionally added bisphenols will no longer be permitted for sale, manufacture, or distribution within the state as of January 1, 2026.

This regulation impacts thermal paper products containing BPA, BPS, and other restricted bisphenol compounds.

For businesses operating in Washington, this means that traditional thermal receipt paper products containing restricted bisphenols must be replaced with compliant non-phenol alternatives.

The regulation affects a wide range of industries, including:

Restaurants and food service
Retail stores
Grocery and convenience stores
Hospitality businesses
Healthcare facilities
Gas stations and travel centers
Financial institutions

Any business using thermal receipt printers should review its current paper inventory and purchasing practices to ensure compliance with the new requirements.

California Proposition 65 Requirements

While California has not implemented the same statewide thermal paper ban as Washington, businesses selling products in California must comply with Proposition 65 regulations.

California Proposition 65 requires businesses to provide warnings when products expose consumers to certain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. BPA is included on the Proposition 65 chemical list.

As a result, thermal paper products containing listed chemicals may require warning labels and disclosures when sold in California.

For suppliers and distributors, this creates additional compliance considerations related to product labeling, online product listings, and customer communications.

Many businesses are choosing to move toward BPA-free, BPS-free, and phenol-free alternatives to simplify compliance requirements and align with evolving customer expectations.

How These Regulations Are Affecting the Thermal Paper Industry

The thermal paper industry has been steadily moving toward safer and more sustainable formulations for several years.

Manufacturers are increasingly investing in:

BPA-free thermal paper
BPS-free thermal paper
Non-phenol thermal paper technologies
Alternative coating chemistries
Environmentally conscious paper solutions

As more states consider similar legislation, many businesses are choosing to standardize on compliant products now rather than wait for additional restrictions to take effect.

Early adoption helps reduce future disruptions while simplifying purchasing decisions across multiple locations and states.

Important Notice for Washington Customers

To comply with Washington State regulations, PaperRolls-N-More can no longer ship thermal paper products containing restricted bisphenols into Washington State.

Customers shipping to Washington should ensure they are purchasing compliant non-phenol thermal paper products that meet current state requirements.

Our team is available to help identify compatible replacement products and answer questions regarding printer compatibility.

Important Information for California Customers

Businesses shipping thermal paper products into California should be aware of Proposition 65 requirements and product labeling obligations.

Depending on the product formulation, warning labels and disclosures may be required for certain thermal paper products sold or distributed within California.

Customers seeking to minimize compliance concerns often choose BPA-free, BPS-free, and non-phenol alternatives whenever possible.

Our Solution: PaperRolls-N-More Phenol-Free Thermal Paper Rolls

At PaperRolls-N-More, we've been closely monitoring these regulatory changes and preparing for the industry's transition.

Rather than waiting until regulations force customers to make changes, we proactively developed our own line of non-phenol thermal paper products.

Our non-phenol thermal paper is manufactured without:

? BPA (Bisphenol A)

? BPS (Bisphenol S)

? Other phenol-based developers

These products deliver the same dependable print quality, image durability, and printer compatibility businesses expect while helping customers navigate evolving regulatory requirements.

Whether you're operating a single retail location or managing a multi-location business across several states, our non-phenol product line offers a practical path toward compliance.

How to Find the Right Paper for Your POS Printer Model (Complete Guide)

2026-06-09T10:16:59-05:00

Choosing the correct receipt paper for your POS printer is essential for keeping your business running smoothly. Using the wrong paper size or type can lead to paper jams, faded receipts, printer damage, and unnecessary downtime.

This guide will walk you step-by-step through how to identify the correct paper for your POS printer model and avoid costly mistakes.

Why Choosing the Right POS Paper Matters

POS printers are designed to work with very specific paper dimensions and types. Even small differences can cause issues.

Using the correct paper ensures:

Smooth printing with no jams
Clear, legible receipts for customers
Longer printer lifespan
Reduced maintenance costs
Consistent performance during peak hours

For high-volume businesses, the wrong paper choice can quickly become an operational problem.

Step 1: Identify Your POS Printer Model

The first and most important step is knowing exactly what printer you are using.

You can usually find this in:

A label on the bottom or back of the printer
Your POS system settings or device list
Original purchase invoice or packaging

Common POS printer brands include:

Epson
Star Micronics
NCR
Bixolon
Citizen
Clover-supported printers
Verifone / Ingenico terminals (integrated systems)

Once you know the model, you can match it to the correct paper specifications.

Step 2: Determine the Correct Paper Size

POS paper is not universal. The most common sizes include:

3 1/8" Thermal Paper

Most widely used in retail and restaurants
Standard for full-size POS printers
High-volume environments

2 1/4" Thermal Paper

Used in mobile POS systems and compact printers
Common in food trucks, kiosks, and small counters

Specialty Sizes

4” rolls (less common, specialty systems)
Custom widths for industrial or kiosk setups

Tip: Never assume size and always measure your existing roll or check your printer manual.

Step 3: Identify Paper Type (Thermal vs Bond)

Once you know the size, the next step is selecting the correct paper type.

Thermal Receipt Paper

Most modern POS systems use thermal paper, which:

Requires no ink or ribbon
Prints using heat
Produces fast, quiet printing
Is standard in retail, restaurants, and kiosks

Bond (Impact) Paper

Older systems may use bond paper, which:

Requires an ink ribbon
Works in impact printers
Common in kitchen printers or legacy systems

If your receipts feel slightly “raised” or use a ribbon, you likely need bond paper.

Step 4: Check Roll Dimensions (Not Just Width)

Two rolls can have the same width but still not fit your printer.

You also need to confirm:

Roll diameter (important for internal space)
Core size (commonly 7/16” or 1/2”)
Paper length per roll

If the roll is too large, it won’t fit—even if the width is correct.

Step 5: Match Compatibility With Your Printer Model

Some printers require specific paper types due to sensor sensitivity or feed design.

Here’s how to verify compatibility:

Check your printer manual
Look up manufacturer specifications
Compare with supplier compatibility charts
Confirm with your paper supplier before ordering

If you're unsure, always match by printer model + paper size + thermal type.

Step 6: Avoid Common Mistakes

Many businesses run into issues because of small but costly errors:

Ordering incorrect width (most common mistake)
Ignoring core size compatibility
Mixing thermal and bond systems
Using low-quality paper that damages print heads
Assuming “universal” paper fits all printers

These mistakes can lead to downtime, wasted inventory, and poor customer experience.

Step 7: When in Doubt, Use Your Existing Roll as a Reference

If you're unsure what to order:

Take out your current roll
Measure width with a ruler
Check core diameter
Note how it feeds into the printer

This is the fastest and most reliable method for identifying your correct paper type.

Where to Buy Compatible POS Printer Paper

Once you know your printer model and paper specs, it’s important to buy from a reliable supplier that offers consistent sizing and quality.

You can explore commercial-grade POS paper options from PaperRolls-N-More, specializing in:

Final Takeaway

Finding the right paper for your POS printer comes down to three key factors:

Printer model
Paper size (width + roll dimensions)
Paper type (thermal or bond)

Once you understand these basics, you can confidently order in bulk, reduce downtime, and keep your POS system running smoothly.

Need Help Finding the Right Paper?

If you’re unsure which paper your printer uses, it’s always better to confirm before ordering. Matching the correct specifications ensures smooth operation and avoids costly interruptions.

How to Keep Your Thermal Receipts from Fading

2024-10-30T12:25:00-05:00

Thermal receipt paper is a powerhouse in the retail and restaurant sectors. Its affordability and ease of use makes it the default choice for both small and large businesses alike.

What you may not know is that thermal paper can fade, causing your receipt to no longer be readable by you, your customer, or the IRS. This is caused by a breakdown in the chemical coating on thermal paper that is usually activated by a print head.

Thankfully, preventing this from happening is simple, just follow these ground rules from PaperRolls-n-More.com

The Vampire Rule

Like vampires, thermal paper doesn't do well in direct sunlight or bright lights. The heat can cause individual receipts or even whole rolls to fade or turn completely gray.

For best results, keep your thermal rolls in a cabinet or on a shelf away from direct sunlight or heat lamps.

3-1/8" x 230' Thermal Receipt Paper Rolls 50/Box, BPA Free

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these thermal paper rolls.

The Oil Rule

The oils on your skin can cause thermal paper to fade. While it takes a good amount of handing, a receipt that lives in your wallet that is touched every time you reach for cash has a high chance of losing its readability. This happens especially fast if the person handling the receipts has cooking oil on their hands or gloves.

For best results, only handle receipts with clean hands, and try not to touch the printed areas too frequently.

Square Terminal 2 1/4" x 55' Thermal Receipt Paper Rolls BPA Free, 50/Box

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these bond paper rolls.

The Adhesive Rule

While organizing files and receipts, it may be tempting to tape a receipt to its invoice, or to put a sticky note on a receipt. Unfortunately, the adhesives in these products can interact with the thermal paper coating and cause it to fade, spreading slowly from the point of adhesion.

For best results, use staples. If you tape receipts up for your takeaway window, consider switching to a ticket holder that squeezes the top of the ticket.

Thermal Paper 101

2024-10-28T15:59:04-05:00

Thermal receipt paper can be found in a majority of retail stores and restaurants in the United States. Its affordability and ease of use makes it the default choice for both small and large businesses alike.

Thermal paper is coated with a heat-reactive chemical that is activated by a specialized print head in a thermal printer. This results in black text or images that require no ink or toner. Thermal paper is usually slick and can be "drawn" on with a fingernail.

There are several common types of thermal paper, denoted mostly by size and length. Here's a quick breakdown.

3 1/8" Thermal Paper Rolls

The most popular type of receipt paper is 3 1/8" thermal paper rolls. This size of receipt paper is frequently used in ATM machines, self checkouts, and cash register receipt printers. The most common length is 230', but PaperRolls-n-More.com carries a large variety of different lengths.

3-1/8" x 230' Thermal Receipt Paper Rolls 50/Box, BPA Free

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these thermal paper rolls.

2 1/4" Thermal Paper Rolls

2 1/4" thermal paper rolls are the most common size for small and portable credit, debit, and POS machines. Because of their smaller size requirements, the rolls are often shorter. However, the rolls are also much cheaper, so you're still getting a good deal!

Square Terminal 2 1/4" x 55' Thermal Receipt Paper Rolls BPA Free, 50/Box

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these bond paper rolls.

Coreless Thermal Paper Rolls

Coreless thermal receipt paper rolls are used for handheld and mobile thermal printers. The coreless design allows for maximum footage in a small size, and the thermal paper means you won't have to worry about running out of ink. Use this paper for Ingenico, Nurit, Point, Verifone, and many other POS printers.

BPA - Why We Don't Use It

2024-10-28T12:07:18-05:00

Thermal paper is the most common receipt paper in the United States. It's coated with a heat-reactive chemical that is activated by a specialized print head in a thermal printer. This results in black text or images that require no ink or toner. Thermal paper is usually slick and can be "drawn" on with a fingernail.

For decades, thermal paper used a coating of Bisephenol A (BPA) to create the darkening effect. It has since been shown that BPA can cause health issues in those that handle or ingest it frequently. These effects are amplified by heating the chemical, which is a core part of how thermal printers operate. As a result, most reputable paper vendors stopped selling rolls with BPA.

Some suppliers have taken advantage of this, selling unregulated paper full of BPA for lower prices. They often sell on third-party sites, and their prices seem too good to be true. This is often because they're selling shortened rolls or using cheaper, more dangerous chemicals.

At PaperRolls-n-More.com, we only sell BPA Free thermal paper. Since 1989, we have focused on keeping our customers safe and happy. See for yourself with our selection of BPA Free Thermal Paper Rolls

Receipt Paper 101

2024-10-22T11:11:05-05:00

When creating your business, receipt paper is probably not the first thing on your mind. However, knowing what type of paper is ideal for each part of your process can save you time and money in the long run. Let's take a look at the different types of paper used for business receipts.

Thermal Paper Rolls

The most popular type of paper roll used for business receipts is thermal receipt paper. This can also be called register paper, thermal paper, or POS paper. This type of paper is coated with a heat-reactive chemical that is activated by a specialized print head in a thermal printer. This results in black text or images on the receipt that requires no ink or toner. The paper is often slick and can be "drawn" on with a fingernail to mimic the printing process.

Thermal paper rolls are an economical and low effort choice for cash registers, ATMs, or handheld POS devices. It's important to keep thermal paper away from heat or direct sunlight, and to buy BPA free rolls to eliminate your risk of BPA poisoning.

3-1/8" x 230' Thermal Receipt Paper Rolls 50/Box, BPA Free

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these thermal paper rolls.

Bond Paper Rolls

Another common type of paper roll is bond paper. This paper requires a printer with ink ribbons, and can be used in hot areas like above a stove or near heat lamps. For this reason, it's often used in back kitchen and expo areas in restaurants.

Toast POS Epson/Star/Samsung Printer 3" x 165' 1-Ply Bond Receipt Paper Rolls, 50/Box BPA Free

Ensure your customers and coworkers have easy-to-read, high quality receipts with these bond paper rolls.

Carbonless Paper Rolls

The last type of paper roll is carbonless paper rolls, which come in 2-ply or 3-ply. Like bond paper, carbonless paper requires printers with ink ribbons. When the print head hits the top layer, a chemical reaction creates a duplicate copy on the additional plies. This is most often seen as a yellow (canary) copy that is given to a customer.

2-ply and 3-ply carbonless bond paper rolls are used when you want to provide a receipt for the customer while retaining a copy of your own. This is used in some food service environments or at non-profits where receipts are often requested. These paper rolls are often less economical, but they are very helpful in some use cases.

Print in Full Color

When most people learn color theory, they're introduced to a color wheel with red, blue, and yellow as the primary colors. While this is helpful for mixing paint, it falls short when it comes to printing. Red, blue, and yellow often create muddy browns when mixed, and they're reliant on white being added to create lighter colors.

The primary colors of Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow were chosen by printing manufacturers in 1906 because they make a much cleaner, broader, and brighter range of secondary colors that shine brilliantly on white paper. A black pigment made with carbon provides a cheaper and simpler printing option that can be used by itself or in combination with CM and Y to create deeper color values.

At PaperRolls-n-More.com, we continue the 118 year tradition of CMYK by providing high quality printer ink and toner cartridges. Embrace all the beautiful colors with our guaranteed high quality ink and toner across many brands like HP, Epson, Brother, Dell, Canon, and more.

Make POS Possible

2024-07-15T16:52:48-05:00

According to RestaurantOwner.com, over 60% of U.S. restaurants are using handheld POS systems like Toast, Clover, and Square in conjunction with traditional cash registers. These systems help employees stay mobile while allowing managers to change prices and menu items quickly.

Unfortunately, paper for these systems can be costly, especially if you're buying directly from the POS provider.

That's where PaperRolls-N-More.com comes in. We carry a large variety of 2 1/4" paper rolls that fit mini and mobile POS systems, as well as the classic 3 1/8" thermal paper roll for full-sized systems. Save money by buying a full case, or try a small pack to see our high quality for yourself before committing.

Don't Get Cut Short

2024-04-09T11:03:34-05:00

Cutting footage is a scam used by many third-party resellers on Big Box Websites. They label their boxes with footage such as 220' or 230', but in reality the footage could be more like 200' or 210'. Big Box Websites don't check what's in their third-party reseller's box, so you may end up overspending without knowing.

At PaperRolls-n-More.com, you don't have to worry about not getting what you paid for. We've been around since 1989, and we check our boxes to make sure they're accurate. Our products are guaranteed to be the stated size, length, and quality every time. Don't get cut short, trust the experts at PaperRolls-n-more.
