Receipt Printer for Retail and Hospitality
The Citizen CT-S310II-U-BK is a direct thermal desktop printer built for point-of-sale environments. It prints receipts and barcodes at up to 160 mm per second with a resolution of 203 dpi. The unit supports paper widths of 80.00 mm and 58.00 mm, making it suitable for standard and narrow receipt formats. It is designed for businesses needing reliable, high-speed transaction printing.
Compact Build with Dual Interface and Auto-Cutter
The black chassis houses an internal ENERGY STAR power supply, removing the need for an external brick and saving counter space. Connectivity includes a USB port and a 9-pin D-sub serial RS-232C connection for legacy or modern POS systems. A software-selectable cutter performs full or partial cuts, while the top-exit paper path keeps the printed receipt accessible. Operating range spans 5 to 45 degrees C.
160 mm/s Print Speed Drives Throughput
The single specification that decides fit is the maximum print speed of 160 mm/sec. This rate determines how quickly queues clear during peak trading hours. Buyers who need faster output for high-volume venues should note this ceiling. The printer also handles 1D and 2D barcodes including QR Code and PDF417, with non-volatile memory of 192K bytes for characters and 384K bytes for graphics.

Questions about this item
What printing speeds does the USB and serial interfaces actually sustain?
The printer reaches 160 mm/sec over both the USB and RS-232C links; throughput is limited by the print engine rather than the interface.
What paper widths and roll sizes fit the CT-S310II?
It takes 80 mm and 58 mm wide thermal rolls; supported print widths are 72, 68.25, 64, 52.5, 48.75, 48 and 45 mm depending on the selected font and paper size.
How do you load paper and set the cutter so it does not jam?
Open the top cover, drop the roll in with paper feeding from the bottom, pull a short length through, close the cover firmly, then choose full or partial cut in the driver — skipping the cover-closure step causes most jams.
