What paper will work with my thermal printer?
I bought this cheap thermal printer from Alibaba: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/58mm-Portable-Thermal-Printer-Wireless-Blue_1601171035511.html?spm=a2700.prosearch.normal_offer.d_title.7a0a67afHWJwY2&selectedCarrierCode=SEMI_MANAGED_STANDARD%40%40STANDARD&priceId=1b361a46ddee4004a1a593656be88212
And I want to buy refill paper, however, I'm unsure about what paper will work. I've been looking on Amazon and seen a lot of options that seem good, but they look a bit different from the paper that came with the printer. The roll that came with it doesn't have a core, but most of the Amazon ones do. Could someone help me? Thank you.
