Thermal Bill / Receipt Generator
Fill in your shop details and items, pick 58mm or 80mm paper width, and download a receipt image formatted exactly like real thermal printer output. No app, no account, no sign-up.
Quick answer: This free tool creates a simple cash memo / receipt in real thermal-printer format — choose 58mm or 80mm paper width, add your shop name, items, tax, and a footer note, then download it as a PNG image. It's not a GST-compliant tax invoice generator (no GSTIN or CGST/SGST breakup) — for full GST billing on Android, use the RasaBill app instead.

What Is a Thermal Bill / Receipt Format?
Thermal receipts look different from a standard A4 invoice on purpose. They're printed on narrow, ink-free thermal paper by a printer that burns the image directly onto heat-sensitive paper — no toner or cartridge involved. Because the paper is narrow, the layout uses a monospace font, dashed section dividers, and a single-column item list instead of a wide table. This generator draws the receipt at the same pixel resolution real thermal printers use (203 DPI), so what you see in the preview is what an actual receipt looks like, not a shrunk-down invoice template.
58mm or 80mm — Which Should You Choose?
These are the two standard thermal paper widths, and nearly every Bluetooth or USB thermal printer sold today uses one or the other:
58mm
- Cheaper paper rolls, more compact printers
- Best for short receipts — 3-6 items, token numbers, delivery slips
- Common with portable/handheld printers
80mm
- Fits a full itemized bill without cramming
- Standard for restaurant and retail counters
- Better for bills with 6+ line items or long item names
Cash Memo vs. GST Invoice — Which Do You Need?
This tool generates what's called a cash memo — a simple, itemized sales receipt with a subtotal, an optional flat tax percentage, and a total. That covers most day-to-day billing for small shops, stalls, and service counters. It is not a GST-compliant tax invoice: it has no GSTIN field and doesn't split tax into CGST/SGST/IGST or follow GST invoice numbering rules. If your business needs to issue real GST invoices on a phone, RasaBill supports full GST billing alongside barcode scanning and inventory tracking — free to start.
Why Not Just Use Word or Excel?
A receipt built in Word or Excel is formatted for A4 paper — wide margins, a multi-column table, a portrait page. Printed or resized onto 58mm/80mm thermal paper, that layout breaks: text runs off the edge, columns overlap, and margins waste paper. This tool is built the other way around — narrow-width first — so the output already matches what a thermal printer expects, with no manual resizing or margin fiddling.
Want to print bills directly to a real printer?
This tool only makes an image. To print straight to a Bluetooth or USB thermal printer from your phone, use Simple Bluetooth Printer or RasaBill — both free.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this bill generator free?
Yes, completely free, with no account or sign-up required. Fill in your details and download the receipt image directly.
What paper sizes does it support?
58mm and 80mm — the two standard thermal receipt paper widths used by nearly all Bluetooth and USB thermal printers.
Can I print the downloaded image on a real thermal printer?
Yes. The image is sized to match real thermal printer resolution, so it prints correctly from any printing app. For direct Bluetooth/USB printing without saving an image first, apps like Simple Bluetooth Printer or RasaBill can print a live bill directly.
Is my bill data stored anywhere?
No. Everything happens in your browser — nothing you type is uploaded or saved on any server.
What's the difference between a cash memo and a GST invoice?
A cash memo is a simple sales receipt with an itemized list and total — no tax registration details required. A GST invoice must include your GSTIN, a tax breakup (CGST/SGST/IGST), and follow specific numbering rules. This tool generates the former, not the latter.
Can I use this to create a GST bill?
Not directly — this tool has a single tax percentage field but no GSTIN or CGST/SGST breakup, so it isn't GST-compliant. For GST-ready billing on Android, use the RasaBill app.
What file format does the receipt download as?
PNG image, sized to match real 58mm or 80mm thermal printer resolution — ready to print, share, or attach anywhere an image works.
