Best Square POS Paper: 2 1/4 x 60' Thermal Paper Rolls for 2025

Running a business with Square POS? Make sure you're using the right receipt paper. In this guide, we’ll cover why 2 1/4 x 60' thermal paper rolls are the best fit for most Square POS terminals and where you can get high-quality rolls in Canada.

Why Square POS Needs the Right Thermal Paper

Square POS systems use thermal printers, which require thermal paper rolls—no ink or ribbon necessary. The heat-sensitive coating on the paper reacts with the thermal printhead to create clear, fast-drying receipts.

Using the correct size and high-quality paper helps prevent jams, ensures crisp text, and maintains printer longevity.

Recommended Size: 2 1/4" x 60'

The standard size for most Square devices, including the Square Terminal and Square Reader with Printer, is:

  • Width: 2 1/4 inches (57mm)
  • Length: 60 feet (18 meters)
  • Core: 0.5 inch (12.7mm)

This size ensures compatibility and maximizes the number of receipts per roll.

Why Choose BPA-Free Thermal Paper?

More businesses are opting for BPA-free thermal paper to improve health and safety for customers and staff. BPA-free rolls are eco-friendly and meet Canadian safety standards.
