Need help installing a new receipt paper roll for your thermal printer? Here are quick and easy steps for the most common Point of Sale (POS) thermal receipt printers such as Epson TM-T88, Bixolon SRP-350 (see video), Star Micronics TSP100 and Citizen CT-S Series.


Step 1: Make sure you are using thermal paper rolls that meet the POS receipt printer’s specifications by checking your machine’s manual or website first. You can also call one of our friendly Customer Account Representatives at (888) 431-5800, and we will be happy to assist.
