The Star Micronics SP700 is a reliable impact receipt printer widely used in retail, hospitality, and food service industries. To ensure optimal performance, it’s important to use compatible and high-quality POS receipt paper. In this guide, we’ll help you understand which type of paper works best for the Star SP700 and how to choose the right one for your business needs.
📌 What Type of Receipt Paper Does the Star SP700 Use?
The Star SP700 is a dot matrix (impact) printer, which means it does not use thermal paper. Instead, it requires 1-ply or 2-ply bond paper rolls.
- Paper Type: Bond Paper (not thermal)
- Paper Size: 76mm x 76mm (3” x 3”)
- Core Size: Standard 7/16” (11mm)
💡 Why Use Bond Paper with the Star SP700?
The SP700’s impact printing technology uses a ribbon to strike the paper and produce text. This is ideal for environments where duplicate copies are needed, such as kitchens, order stations, or where heat may affect thermal print quality. Bond paper ensures clear and lasting print output, even in hot or humid conditions.
