Box of 57x40mm thermal rolls for a Sunmi V2 Pro handheld order terminal

Receipt Rolls for Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats: Which Size Does Your Order Printer Take?

The DiscountTillRolls.ie Team

Delivery app order printers take one of two roll sizes. Handheld order terminals, like the Sunmi V2 and V2 Pro used by Deliveroo and the Just Eat order pad, take a 57x40mm thermal roll, the same size as most card machines. Countertop receipt printers connected to a Deliveroo, Just Eat or Uber Eats tablet, such as the Epson TM-T20, TM-M30 and Star TSP143, take an 80x70mm thermal roll.

The quick way to tell: if the printer is built into a handheld device, it is 57mm. If it is a separate box on the counter, it is 80mm. The rest of this guide covers each app and the model names to look for.

In this guide

Which roll does each delivery app printer take?

All of these are thermal rolls, so there is no ink or ribbon to buy.

Printer or terminal Where you see it Roll size
Sunmi V2 / V2 Pro handheld Deliveroo, Just Eat 57x40mm
Just Eat order pad Just Eat 57x40mm
Epson TM-T20 Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Just Eat with a tablet 80x70mm
Epson TM-M30 Tablet and app-based setups 80x70mm

Star TSP143 Deliveroo and tablet POS 80x70mm
Star TSP654 Busy kitchens and counters 80x70mm
Star mC-Print3 Cloud-connected tablet POS 80x70mm

Uber Eats usually runs on a tablet on its own. If you have added a printer to it, it will almost always be an 80mm Epson or Star model from the table above.

How do I check which printer I have?

  1. Is it handheld or on the counter? Handheld devices with a built-in printer take 57mm. Separate counter printers take 80mm.
  2. Read the label. The make and model (for example "TM-T20III" or "TSP143") is on a sticker on the back or underneath.
  3. Measure the old roll. Width across the paper will be 57mm or 80mm. That tells you straight away. Our till roll size chart shows how in two minutes.

If the app provider sent the printer out to you, their welcome pack or the box it came in usually names the model too.

Is it the same roll as my card machine?

If your order printer is a handheld 57x40mm device, yes. Most card machines also take 57x40mm, so one box can cover both. That keeps things simple behind the counter.

If your order printer is an 80mm counter printer, no. It needs the wider 80x70mm roll, which will not fit your card terminal. The full list of terminals is in what roll your card machine takes.

How do I avoid running out on a busy night?

Friday and Saturday evenings are when delivery printers work hardest, and a dead printer means missed orders and unhappy drivers. A few habits help:

  • Keep a full box on site, not just a few loose rolls. Reorder when you open the last box, not when you use the last roll.
  • Watch for the coloured end stripe. Most rolls have a warning stripe near the end. When staff see it, they should have a new roll ready.
  • Keep rolls away from the fryer and pass lights. Heat darkens thermal paper before it is even printed.
  • Put it on repeat. Auto-Ship sends the same order on a schedule, so you never have to remember.

If a roll jams or prints faint, our paper jam troubleshooting guide covers the usual fixes.

Frequently asked questions

What size paper does a Deliveroo printer take?

The Sunmi V2 and V2 Pro handhelds take 57x40mm thermal rolls. Counter printers used with Deliveroo, like the Epson TM-T20, TM-M30 or Star TSP143, take 80x70mm thermal rolls.

What size roll does the Just Eat order pad take?

The Just Eat handheld order pad takes a 57x40mm thermal roll, the same size as most card machines.

What paper does an Uber Eats printer use?

Uber Eats usually runs on a tablet. If you have connected a printer, it is typically an 80mm Epson or Star model, which takes an 80x70mm thermal roll.

Do delivery app printers need ink?

No. They are thermal printers, so they print with heat. You only buy the paper rolls.

Can I buy rolls from anyone, or do I have to buy from the app?

You can buy from any supplier. What matters is the size and paper quality, not the logo on the box.

Why are my order dockets fading or going grey?

Thermal paper reacts to heat and light. Store rolls away from the fryer, grill and pass lights, and do not leave dockets sitting under heat lamps.

Never miss an order for want of a roll.
