Calculator Rolls and Kitchen Order Printer Paper

What is the difference between calculator rolls and thermal rolls?

Calculator rolls are made from standard paper and are used in printers that print using an ink ribbon or another ink-transfer method. Thermal rolls work differently. The print is created using heat, without the need for an ink ribbon.

If your printer uses thermal paper, you will need a different type of roll. See our range of cash register rolls and thermal rolls.

Choose the right paper roll for your printer

It is not only the paper type that matters. Rolls are available in different sizes, and it is important to ensure they fit your printer.

In particular, check:

• Roll width: Must match the printer's specified dimensions.
• Outer diameter: Determines the maximum roll size that will fit.
• Core diameter: Must be compatible with the printer's holder.
• Paper type: Check whether the printer uses standard paper or thermal paper.

The range also includes 2-ply rolls for equipment that supports this type of paper. If you are unsure, consult your printer's specifications.

Kitchen printer rolls for restaurants and commercial kitchens

Kitchen printer rolls are used in kitchen printers to print orders received from the cash register system. Here you will find paper rolls for kitchen printers that use ink ribbons.

Check which roll size and paper type your kitchen printer requires. Standard paper rolls and thermal rolls are not interchangeable in all printers.
