57 x 40mm Card Machine Roll Specifications

Fast and Clear Thermal Receipt Printing

Thermal receipt paper contains a heat-sensitive coating that reacts when it passes over the printer head. This allows a compatible card terminal to print transaction details without using an ink ribbon or cartridge.

The result is fast, clear receipt printing that helps staff complete transactions efficiently during busy periods. Thermal printing also reduces routine maintenance because there are no ink ribbons to replace.

How to Check Card Machine Compatibility

Not all card payment terminals use the same paper roll. Before ordering, check the specifications printed inside your terminal, compare the measurements with your current roll or consult the equipment manual.

• Paper width: Confirm that your terminal accepts approximately 57mm-wide paper.
• Roll diameter: Check that the paper compartment can accommodate an approximately 40mm roll diameter.
• Paper type: Confirm that the terminal requires thermal paper.
• Core format: Check whether your terminal accepts a coreless roll or requires a particular core size.
• Paper orientation: Install the roll with the heat-sensitive surface facing the thermal printer head.

Do not rely only on the terminal brand or payment provider. Different models supplied by the same company may require different paper dimensions.

Environmental and Disposal Information

These thermal rolls are described as biodegradable, recyclable and compostable. However, disposal requirements can vary because thermal paper contains a heat-sensitive coating.

Before placing used receipts into recycling or compost collections, check whether thermal paper is accepted by your local authority or commercial waste provider. Environmental claims should be retained only where supported by current supplier or manufacturer documentation.

Storage and Handling

Store unused thermal paper rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, oils and strong chemicals. Thermal paper can darken or lose print clarity when exposed to unsuitable storage conditions.

Keep the rolls in their original packaging until required and avoid scratching or pressing the coated surface unnecessarily. Install each roll according to the card machine or printer manufacturer’s instructions.
