Thermal Paper Rolls
57mm and 79mm billing rolls — bulk cartons for daily billing.
The one thing a billing counter always runs out of. Thermal rolls are sold by width and by the length or weight of the roll, and the quality matters more than shops expect — thin, low-grade paper fades within weeks and jams the cutter.
Options
57mm × 40mm
The standard roll for a 58mm printer. The everyday kirana and tea-shop size.
79mm × 50mm
For 80mm counter printers. Longer bills, fewer roll changes.
Bulk carton
Cartons for shops going through several rolls a day — the sensible way to buy this.
What to check before you order
- Check the printer's paper width before ordering — a 57mm roll will not sit correctly in an 80mm printer.
- Cheap thin rolls fade fast. If a customer may return a bill months later, that matters.
- Buying by the carton is materially cheaper per roll than buying singles.
Answers
Thermal Paper Rolls — common questions
How long does a printed thermal bill stay readable?
It depends entirely on paper grade and storage. Good rolls stay legible for months; heat, sunlight and oil fade them faster. For records you must keep, save the digital copy in Bill Bazaar rather than relying on the paper.
Which width do I need?
Check your printer: a 58mm printer takes 57mm rolls, an 80mm printer takes 79mm rolls.
Is BPA-free paper available?
Yes — worth asking for if your staff handle rolls all day or you are in food service.
