Which one works better on you ? Roll diameter or meter length

Many buyers ask me if they can get a good deal on buying our thermal paper. Today I am going to tell you what you are really buying from us.

It is related to various factors, such as paper thickness, core size, and the degree of tightness when winding, mainly the first two points.

Firstly, let’s consider the printer’s space, which means the roll diameter can be put in the machine. Let’s take the more popular size 57*50mm in the market, the length of it only less than 12 meters, for example, if brush a card in POS machine need to print 10 cm, our paper can print 170 times, and the 57*50mm on the market can only print less than 120 times! This 57*50mm thermal paper can reduce the inconvenience caused by paper shortage! In the product cost performance, the factory production of a roll of paper labor costs are the same, and the long length of cashier paper is actually more affordable.

In the same way in 80x80mm thermal roll,80mm is the roll diameter, with the same diameter; if we use a bigger core, there will be less raw material, less meter length, and less price. As the standards in our company, generally speaking, the paper core diameter is bigger than the solid plastic core, so if we quote the same size 80x80mm, the price for the paper core will be a little low than the plastic core; Secondly, suppose we fix the paper roll diameter and core size, we produce by different paper thickness, it also make differences on price. The thickness of thermal paper refers to the unit of length, in mm or μm. The weight of thermal paper is grams per square meter, g/m².

The thicker, the shorter, and cheaper, but this is only usually subject to the thermal paper gsm from 45-70.
In short, it is the winding tightness that does not have a big impact on it since it takes the tension of the machine to reach the standard.

Now we can summarize what you really buy: the meter of paper length.
