Step by step guide
1. Before you get started![Card machine till rolls]()
You can’t replace an old till roll unless you’ve got a new one. You can order till rolls from our approved supplier, PDQ consumables, on 0800 161 5343 (option 4) or pdqconsumables.com.
Be sure to order the right ones, though. Your card machine can only hold paper rolls that are 57mm wide and 40mm in diameter. If you try to put the wrong size of till roll in your card machine, you could break it.
