In today’s fast-paced retail and hospitality environments, choosing the right thermal printer paper roll for your card machine can make a world of difference in your operations. One of the most commonly used sizes is the 3 1/8” thermal paper roll, and for good reason—it’s compatible with a wide range of credit card terminals, POS systems, and thermal receipt printers.

How to Choose the Right Thermal Roll Size
Thermal rolls come in various sizes, but 3 1/8" (also written as 80mm wide) is ideal for standard POS printers and terminals. Here's how to identify what you need:
- Check your printer model (e.g., Epson TM-T88, Clover Station, etc.)
- Measure the width of your current roll—most likely it’s 3 1/8"
- Ensure the roll length (e.g., 230’ or 275’) fits your printer’s paper compartment
At MilaMima, we offer accurate sizing information for all our paper rolls to ensure a perfect fit.
