receipt printers

Point-of-sale outputters

Receipt printers are specialized devices that print transaction records at point of sale—the narrow paper slips you get at checkout.

Most use thermal printing, which heats chemically treated paper rather than using ink.

They're built for speed and durability in retail environments: The receipt printer jammed during the lunch rush.
