Width of receipt tape. Receipt tape, cash tape, thermal label. There are several types of receipt tape

In this article we will talk about what kind of receipt tape there is, what it consists of and for what purpose a tape of one type or another is intended.

The first receipt tape appeared at the same time as the first cash register, that is, in 1884. WITH light hand The Ritti brothers came into the world with an invention that affected almost all the inhabitants of the Earth. Sellers received a device that allows them to quickly make payments, refuse bills and record all transactions, and buyers have the opportunity to quickly make purchases in stores and have documentary evidence of them.

Today there is huge amount modifications not only of the cash registers themselves, but also of receipt tapes. They vary in width or length, number of layers, printing method, bushing diameter.

Receipt tape It can be single-layer, double-layer, with or without perforation, dense and low density. Plus, standard values ​​also matter:
- diameter of the sleeve for winding the tape: 12 mm, 18 mm, 26 mm,
- tape width - 28.5 mm, 38 mm, 44 mm, 57 mm, 70 mm, 76 mm.
Typically, the standard size of a receipt tape is indicated as follows: “width” x “roller diameter” x “inner sleeve diameter” - for example, 57 x 60 x 12, all dimensions in millimeters.

What types of receipt tape are there?
If a single-layer tape consists of one layer of offset paper (with a density of 60-65 g/m and a whiteness of 90-96% according to ISO, a color stripe is applied on the last five meters of the tape), then with regard to a multi-layer tape everything is much more complicated. It is divided into:
- two-layer, consisting of one layer of offset paper and a second self-copying layer. The same cash register unit applies an image to both layers, the upper one is received by the buyer, and the lower one remains in the cash register. The latter is made from special paper with the addition of microgranules, which, under the pressure of the printing unit (cartridge) of the KKM, burst and form an imprint.
- Dual-active (capillary two-layer) - made of two layers of paper with a self-copying coating. As a rule, it is used in cash registers without a cartridge, often when operating a cash register with low temperatures, when the ink cartridges freeze, or when replacing a cartridge is more expensive than using dual-active tape.
- Single-active (capillary single-layer) - from one active (self-copying) layer, the image on which appears under mechanical influence. Often used in cash registers without a cartridge.
- Thermal tape (thermochemical receipt tape) - made of one layer of thermal paper, the image on which appears under the influence of temperature. The paper used is the same as for the production of fax rollers. The thermoactive coating allows the receipt tape to be used in the most severe conditions and significantly increases the speed of issuing receipts. Thermal tape is often used in ATMs and payment terminals.

Most cash registers have a thermal printer and use the most common receipt tape - thermal tape.

Thermal receipt tape is thick paper with a thermochemical layer that darkens when exposed to heat from the printer's thermal head, resulting in a programmed black and white image on the receipt. Thermal printing is the most economical way to receive receipts, so most cash registers, POS terminals, fiscal registrars, ATMs, payment terminals use this type of printing.

Advantages of thermal printing:

• there are no costs for purchasing ink ribbon;
• receipts are printed on a thermal printer at high speed.

The main criteria for choosing thermal receipt tape:

• width - from 37 mm to 80 mm, the most common size is 57 and 80 mm;
• tape roll sleeve diameter - 12 mm, 18 mm, 26 mm;
• tape roll diameter - from 25 to 250 mm;
• paper density - from 48 to 55 g/sq.m.

Your printer's manual will tell you the core size and ribbon roll diameter it uses. Should buy consumables for receipt printing devices in accordance with the technical recommendations of your equipment.

Receipt tape

For printing checks and receipts for accepting payments in banks and wholesalers trade organizations Dot matrix printers are often used. In the process of matrix printing, the printer head uses an impact method to apply an image to a receipt through an ink ribbon, which is packaged in a cartridge. The image is made up of many points.

The dot matrix printer uses classic offset receipt tape. The main criteria for choosing offset receipt tape:

• width - from 37 mm to 76 mm;
• tape roll sleeve diameter - 12 mm, 18 mm;
• tape roll diameter - from 54 to 83 mm;
• paper density - from 48 to 80 g/sq.m;
• number of layers.

Advantages of dot matrix printing:

• offset receipt tape is a cheaper consumable material compared to thermal tape;
• The print quality on a dot matrix printer receipt is more resistant to external influences than on a thermal receipt;
• ink ribbon for matrix receipt printers can be two-color, which distinguishes matrix printing from thermal printing;
• Dot matrix printers print carbon-copy sales receipts on two-layer or multi-layer receipt tape. Multilayer tape consists of two or several layers of paper, the top layer is ordinary offset paper, microgranules of paint are applied to the lower layers, which, when the print head of the printer hits, produces a copy of the receipt, the top receipt is received by the client, the copies remain in the trading organization.

The type of RECEIPT TAPE is indicated in technical documentation To cash register equipment.

In order for them to help you select a RECEIPT TAPE, you need to know the full brand of the cash register, as well as whether any of its upgrades have been made at the service center.

If the printing unit has been replaced, it is possible that the standard receipt tape for this cash register model will not work. In this case, you should seek advice from the service center where the KKM repair was carried out. The simplest and most reliable way is to measure the width, inner and outer diameters of the receipt tape roller already used in cash register equipment and remember this type.

Typically, the standard size of a receipt tape is indicated as follows: “width” x “inner sleeve diameter” x “roller diameter” - for example, 57 x 1 2 x 60, all dimensions in mm.

There are several modifications of the receipt tape; below we will consider the most common ones.

Thermal tape(or thermochemical receipt tape) - consists of one layer of thermal paper, the image on which appears under the influence of temperature, is perhaps the most common at the moment. This receipt tape consists of a single layer of paper coated with a thermoactive coating. The paper used is the same as for the production of fax rollers. The width of such a receipt tape is from 40 to 80 mm. The most commonly used rollers are 40, 44, 57, 80 mm wide. The winding length of such rollers varies: from 20 to 500 m and even sometimes up to 900 m. Large winding rollers are used mainly in payment terminals and ATMs. The density of the paper base is from 55 to 58 g/m. sq. Sometimes there are unscrupulous manufacturers who, for the sake of their own profit, wind rollers from thermal paper of lower density, which is why consumers have inexplicable, at first glance, problems when operating thermal printers as part of cash register terminals, terminals and ATMs.

Single layer receipt tape (or offset) - consists of one layer of offset paper. There are 6 widths of receipt tape available - 37, 40, 44, 57, 69 and 76 mm. Receipt tape rollers of the same width differ in outer diameters, which can be from 54 to 70 mm, and the inner diameters of the sleeve - 12 or 18 mm. Each cash register model can use a receipt tape of a strictly defined width and a certain diameter to fit in the space allocated for it. The diameter of the bushing is also important - only Samsung cash register machines can use rollers with 12 and 18 mm bushings, since they have a conical pin for the roller. A prerequisite is to apply a colored (usually red) stripe on the last 5 meters of the receipt tape. The appearance of a receipt tape with such a stripe at the exit of the cash register indicates that the receipt tape will soon run out and it’s time to change the roller. To produce a single-layer receipt tape and the top layer of a two-layer receipt tape, both offset paper with surface sizing and a whiteness of 96-100%, and writing (newspaper) paper with a whiteness of 92-94% of domestic production are used.

Multilayer or two-layer receipt tape - consists of one layer of offset paper and a second self-copying layer. It is divided into a receipt tape with two active layers, which consists of two self-copying layers, and a receipt tape with one self-copying active layer.

On a multilayer receipt tape, consisting of two layers, the image is applied by one CCT printing unit. The top layer of the receipt tape is received by the buyer, and the bottom layer remains in the cash register.

The top layer is made of high-quality offset paper, and the bottom layer is made of special paper with a self-copying layer. Receipt tape is available in widths of 44, 57 and 76, less often 69 mm, and an outer roller diameter of 54 to 70 mm. The sleeve is used with only one internal diameter - 12 mm.

Multilayer receipt tape with two active layers consists of two layers of paper with a self-copying coating. This type of receipt tape is used in cash registers without a cartridge; it is often used when the cash register operates at low temperatures, when the ink of the cartridges freezes, or if replacing a cartridge is more expensive than using a dual-active tape. Receipt tape is available in widths of 44, 57 and 76 mm. A multilayer receipt tape with one active layer is used in cash registers without a cartridge, in the same cases as a two-active receipt tape. They are often used on Samsung cash registers, since it is often cheaper to work on a single-active receipt tape than to buy expensive cartridges that are of poor quality.
