Everything You Need to Know About 3 1/8" Thermal Rolls

When it comes to running a business smoothly, having the right receipt paper is just as important as the equipment itself. 3 1/8" thermal rolls are among the most commonly used paper sizes in POS systems and receipt printers across North America. But what makes them so popular?

📏 What Are 3 1/8" Thermal Rolls?

3 1/8" refers to the width of the thermal paper roll — specifically, 3.125 inches or approximately 80mm. These rolls are used in high-speed thermal printers that rely on heat-sensitive paper to produce clear, smudge-free receipts without the need for ink or toner.

  • Gas stations and kiosks
