▶ How to Load Paper in Your Square Terminal (4 Simple Steps)
- Lift the paper compartment cover on the back of your Square Terminal.
- Remove any old roll and place the new roll with paper feeding from underneath (thermal/shiny side facing up toward the print head).
- Pull a small amount of paper past the edge of the compartment.
- Close the cover firmly until it clicks.
Tip: If receipts come out blank, the roll is loaded backwards. Flip it over so the thermal (shiny) side faces the print head.
⚠️ Important: Do NOT use rolls larger than 1.25" diameter. Oversized rolls can damage the paper compartment door.
▶ Why BPA-Free Matters
Traditional thermal paper contains BPA (Bisphenol A), a chemical that transfers to skin on contact. BPA has been linked to health concerns and is being phased out worldwide.
- Our paper is 100% BPA-free AND BPS-free, no harmful chemicals
- Safe for employees who handle receipts all day
- Safe for customers who touch receipts
- Required by law in some states and countries
- No difference in print quality, same crisp, clear receipts
Unlike cheap paper that substitutes BPS (Bisphenol S) for BPA, which has similar health concerns, our paper is free of both.
▶ Why Roll Size Matters for Square Terminal
The Square Terminal has a small paper compartment on the back of the device. Using the wrong size paper causes problems:
| Paper Size | Fits? | Notes |
| 2 1/4" x 50' (This product): | ✅ Perfect fit | Correct width and diameter |
| 2 1/4" x 85': | ❌ Too large | Roll diameter too big — won't close |
| 2 1/4" x 230': | ❌ Way too large | Standard register rolls — do NOT use |
| 3 1/8" x anything: | ❌ Too wide | For full-size receipt printers only |
| 1.5" diameter rolls: | ⚠️ Risky | May damage the paper door |
Our rolls are precision-sized to fit the Square Terminal compartment without forcing the door or jamming the mechanism.

▶ Troubleshooting — Blank or Faded Receipts
The Square Terminal is a thermal printer. it uses heat to create images on the paper. No ink or ribbon is needed.
- Blank receipts? The roll is loaded backwards. Remove the roll, flip it over so the shiny/thermal side faces up toward the print head, and reload.
- Faded receipts? Check that you're using thermal paper (not bond paper). Bond paper is plain white on both sides — thermal paper has one slightly shiny/coated side.
- Paper door won't close? The roll diameter is too large. Use only 2 1/4" x 50' rolls designed for the Square Terminal.
- Paper jamming? Make sure the paper feeds from underneath the roll and exits over the top toward the screen side.
▶ About Our American Made Thermal Paper
Every roll is manufactured in the USA to strict quality standards. Our thermal coating is formulated for high-contrast black printing, excellent image longevity, and resistance to fading from heat, light, and humidity.
Our lint-free thermal paper protects your Square Terminal's print head from buildup that causes faded receipts, streaks, and premature wear. The red end-of-roll warning stripe alerts you before running out mid-transaction.
