Gas Station & C-Store

Pump paper, indoor POS paper, and everything in between

Gas stations and convenience stores run two completely different paper specs — outdoor pump dispensers and indoor POS terminals. Paper Roll Products stocks both, in the exact sizes your equipment requires, with same-day shipping.

Quick reference
Fuel pump dispenser2 5/16" UV-stable

Payment terminal2 1/4" thermal
Indoor POS system (Ruby2)3 1/8" thermal
Pump paper must be UV-stable — standard thermal fades in direct sunlight
Why pump paper is different

UV-stable and weather-resistant — not the same as indoor thermal

Standard thermal paper is designed for indoor use. Outdoor pump dispensers expose receipts to direct sunlight, heat, and moisture — conditions that cause standard thermal to fade materially within days and become unreadable within weeks. UV-stable pump paper uses a specially formulated coating that resists these conditions and maintains legible output throughout the receipt's useful life.

2 5/16" is the pump standard
Pump dispensers use a unique width — not the 2 1/4" or 3 1/8" used indoors. Using the wrong size will jam your dispenser.
400' rolls reduce dispenser downtime
Longer rolls mean fewer reload visits per dispenser — especially important for high-volume forecourts.
Indoor paper is a different product
Indoor POS and terminal paper is standard thermal — same spec as any retail operation. Both stocked, one supplier.
Outdoor pump dispensers

2 5/16" fuel pump receipt paper

All major fuel dispenser brands use the same 2 5/16" wide UV-stable format. Available in 209' and 400' lengths — the longer roll means fewer reload visits per dispenser. See our full fuel dispenser paper guide →

Important: Pump dispensers use 2 5/16" rolls — not the standard 2 1/4" or 3 1/8" used indoors. Using the wrong size will jam your dispenser. UV-stable coating is required; standard thermal paper fades materially in outdoor conditions within days of sun exposure.
