Things to Consider
Ply refers to thickness, or a layer or fold of material.
Ribbons provide the ink to print on a roll.
BPA stands for bisphenol A, a chemical that has been used to make some plastics or resins.
P.O.S. stands for Point of Sale, which refers to the area or system used to complete customers' transactions - including cash registers and credit/debit card machines.
Bond:
Lint-free, these rolls are made from pure white paper and are ideal for use in stores, restaurants with P.O.S. systems, fuel pumps, hotels, casinos, or other retail locations where only one copy of the receipt is needed. They are used in dot matrix/impact printers and use ribbons to print text.
Ply: 1
Sizes: 38mm (1.5”) x 130’ - 4.5” x 160’
Carbonless:
Composed of a white layer and a canary yellow customer copy layer, these register rolls are perfect for locations that need both a customer copy and one for their own records. Primarily designed for use in P.O.S. systems so restaurant managers can verify the charges against a credit card, they can also be used in cafes, showrooms, retail outlets, fuel stations, or grocery stores. They produce two copies using traditional register printer with a register ribbon. When the first copy is printed, the pressure results in the content being copied onto the second sheet.

Sizes: 2 ¼” x 90’ - 4.5” x 90’
Thermal:
Thermal rolls create images without the use of printer cartridges or ink ribbons, and are made from heat/friction-sensitive paper. They fit most standard credit, debit, and P.O.S. machines. Perfect for use at ATMs, P.O.S. system printers, cash registers, showrooms, fuel stations, and retail locations, they generate a black image (when used with a thermal printer) which can be preserved for future reference.
