Appendix D: Ordering Paper and Supplies
Thermal receipt paper, ribbon cassettes, and forms can be ordered. Documentation is also
available.
Ordering Thermal Receipt Paper
The 7156 requires “fax grade” thermal paper with the following dimensions:
Diameter Length Width
83 mm max. (3.27 inches) 83 meters (273 ft.) 80 mm ± .2 mm (3.15 ± .02 inches)
The paper must not be attached at the core. Use paper with a colored stripe at the end to
indicate that the paper is running low.
The paper low LED will blink when there are about 4 ½ meters (15 feet) of paper left. If the
paper runs out, the paper low LED stays on and the printer stops printing.
The host computer will alert you that the paper in the receipt station is out (depending on
the application program running on the host computer).
