How to Measure & Replace POS Paper Rolls

Running out of receipt paper during a busy day can slow down your business. Knowing how to measure and replace POS paper rolls helps ensure seamless transactions.

Step 1: Identify the Right Size

Most POS terminals use 2 1/4" or 3 1/8" rolls. Measure the width and diameter of your old roll to find an exact match. Check compatibility with brands like Moneris, Verifone, Clover, and Ingenico.

Step 2: Choose the Right Type

MilaMima offers BPA-free thermal paper for modern printers that don’t require ink or ribbons. Thermal coating ensures crisp, fast printing and long-lasting receipts.

Step 3: Replacing the Roll

  1. Open the POS paper compartment.
  2. Insert the new roll with the thermal side facing the printhead.
  3. Pull a small section out and close the cover.

Pro Tip:

Store extra rolls in a cool, dry place to extend shelf life and print quality. MilaMima’s tight-core paper ensures smooth feeding and minimal jams.
