Direct thermal receipt printer

The Star Micronics mC-Print3 MCP31CI is a direct thermal receipt printer built for hospitality, retail and mobile point-of-sale systems. It produces receipts on 2.83" wide paper using heat rather than ink or toner. Connectivity includes Ethernet, USB and Wireless LAN so it fits wired, tablet or cloud-based setups. An integrated cutter separates each receipt automatically.

400 mm/s print speed and IP22 protection

The mechanism prints at up to 400 mm per second, or 15.75 inches per second, keeping queues moving during peak service. Star's print-flat technology delivers flat receipts that do not curl. The IP22-rated chassis resists splashes, dust and insects, making it suitable for kitchen or bar environments as well as front-of-house counters. Continuous high-volume printing will eventually require paper roll replacement.

Front-loading design for kiosk integration

A front-loading paper path allows the unit to be built into kiosks and self-service stations without rear access. The compact, recyclable packaging contains no single-use plastics. Paper-saving features reduce the top margin to minimise media consumption. The printer requires a host device or POS system to send print jobs and a supply of 2.83" direct thermal paper rolls.

Questions about this item

Will the 400mm/s print speed overwhelm my older POS terminal connected via USB?

The printer negotiates speed with the host, so an older USB terminal simply receives data at its own pace without losing receipts.

How do I confirm the Ethernet link is live after I plug the MCP31CI into my network switch?

The front panel LEDs show solid green for link and blink for activity, giving immediate visual confirmation of a working wired connection.

Does the box include a roll of 2.83" thermal paper or must I order that separately?

A starter roll of 2.83" thermal paper is supplied in the box; additional rolls are purchased separately.
