Thermal paper roll Seiko Instruments MM80-50-33 (MPN 22900013) for thermal printers, width 80 mm, diameter 50 mm

Thermal paper roll Seiko Instruments MM80-50-33 is a direct-thermal media designed for receipt and ticket printers that accept 80 mm wide rolls. With an outer diameter of 50 mm, the roll is compact and compatible with many point-of-sale and portable thermal printers. It produces clear monochrome text and simple graphics without ink, toner, or ribbons, relying on heat-sensitive coating for immediate printing.

Advantages

The thermal paper roll provides consistent print quality suitable for receipts, tickets and short-term records. Its direct-thermal construction eliminates the need for consumable inks and simplifies maintenance. The 80 mm width and 50 mm diameter make it suitable for devices with limited paper bay space while still offering adequate paper length for multiple transactions. The roll core is standardized to fit most common thermal printer spindles and ensures smooth feeding.

Suitable for

• Retail point-of-sale receipt printing
• Hospitality checks and receipts
• Event and transport ticketing
• Portable and compact thermal printers
• Transaction logs and short-term record keeping

Key specifications

• Paper type: direct thermal
• Paper width: 80 mm
• Outer roll diameter: 50 mm
• Core: standard small-diameter core for thermal printers
• Print color: black (heat-activated)
• Shelf life: typical for direct-thermal media (varies with storage conditions)

How to use

Open the printer cover and remove any used roll core. Insert the thermal paper roll with the thermal side facing the printer head; the thermal side is the coated side that darkens when heated. Feed the paper through the printer’s paper path and close the cover. Perform a paper feed or test print to verify correct installation. Replace the roll when print fades or the roll is depleted. Store unused rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve sensitivity.

Usage recommendations

Use rolls within the manufacturer’s recommended storage conditions to maintain print sensitivity. Avoid exposure to high heat, direct sunlight, oils, solvents or long-term contact with plastics that can cause premature darkening. For archival requirements, consider using thermal-stable media or making electronic copies, as direct-thermal prints may fade over time.
