Running a business today means having a reliable point-of-sale system — and a reliable POS system needs high-quality paper rolls. If you use a Clover POS terminal, using the right thermal roll paper is essential for smooth operation, clear receipts, and customer satisfaction. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about thermal paper for Clover POS printers, including compatibility, features, environmental concerns, and why MilaMima is your trusted Canadian supplier.
What is Thermal Roll Paper?
Thermal roll paper is a special fine paper coated with a heat-sensitive material that reacts to heat without the need for ink. It's widely used in point-of-sale (POS) terminals, ATMs, credit card machines, and mobile receipt printers. When heat is applied to the paper via a thermal printhead, it turns black in the areas where the printhead touches the paper, forming characters or images.
Why Clover POS Systems Need Specific Thermal Rolls
Not all thermal rolls are created equal. Clover POS printers are designed to work best with specific roll sizes, especially the 3 1/8" x 230' (80mm x 70mm) format, which is the industry standard for many Clover devices including:
- Clover Station
- Clover Mini
- Clover Flex
- Clover Mobile
Using incompatible paper can cause jams, blurry receipts, and even damage the thermal printhead. That’s why choosing the right size and quality is crucial for your POS system's longevity and reliability.

Common Questions about Thermal Rolls for Clover
1. How do I know which size fits my Clover POS?
Check your Clover model manual or measure the existing roll width. Most Clover terminals use 3 1/8" width, but it's best to confirm before ordering.
2. What’s the difference between thermal paper and bond paper?
Thermal paper reacts to heat and doesn’t require ink. Bond paper is used in impact printers and requires ink ribbons. Clover uses thermal only.
3. How should I store my thermal rolls?
Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat to maintain image clarity and prevent fading.
4. Are MilaMima thermal rolls safe?
Yes! Our thermal rolls are 100% BPA-free and compliant with Canadian health and safety standards.
