Star Micronics thermal paper 57 mm width 4 cm diameter 60 g/m² white

Star Micronics thermal paper rolls are specifically designed for direct thermal printing in compatible receipt printers and cash registers. Featuring a width of 57 mm, a roll diameter of 4 cm, and a paper weight of 60 g/m², these white thermal paper rolls deliver clean and legible receipts for everyday transactions. Using proper thermal paper helps maintain the condition of the print head and built-in cutter, preventing premature wear associated with abrasive lower-quality stocks.

Advantages

The Star Micronics thermal paper provides a reliable surface for the direct thermal printing process, ensuring that receipts and tickets appear clear and easy to read. With a balanced paper weight of 60 g/m², the rolls offer a solid feel while feeding smoothly through compatible compact printers. Utilizing genuine thermal media helps protect internal printer components from abrasion, supporting consistent performance in high-traffic environments.

• Printing retail sales receipts and customer invoices
• Issuing tickets and service slips in hospitality and ticketing environments
• Daily transaction logging in compact POS systems and cash registers
• Use in compatible mobile, desktop, and kiosk receipt printers

When it may not be suitable

This thermal paper is not designed for long-term archival storage where documents must remain legible for many decades, as thermal print can fade over time when exposed to heat or direct sunlight. It is also incompatible with standard inkjet or laser printers and should not be used in devices that require plain paper or ink ribbons.

Key specifications

• Roll width: 57 mm
• Roll diameter: 4 cm
• Paper weight: 60 g/m²
• Color: White
• Print technology: Direct thermal

How to use

Open the paper compartment of your compatible Star Micronics thermal printer or cash register. Insert the thermal paper roll so that the paper feeds from the bottom of the roll towards the print head, ensuring the thermally sensitive side faces the correct direction for printing. Pull a small amount of paper past the tear bar or cutter edge, and close the printer cover securely before starting your print jobs.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your receipt printer or cash register model supports a roll width of 57 mm and a maximum roll diameter of 4 cm.
• Confirm that your device utilizes direct thermal printing technology rather than ink-based or matrix printing.
• Assess your volume requirements to ensure compatibility with standard pack quantities.

Always store unused thermal paper rolls in a cool, dark, and dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the quality of the thermal coating.
