Epson TM-m30 Paper Reduction Settings

Description: Enable the built-in Paper Reduction settings within the Epson TM-M30 thermal receipt printer with the below steps. This can drastically shorten the length of a receipt but, in turn, will reduce the amount of space between each line.


To begin, open the Start menu and locate the EPSON TM-m30 Utility. Double-click to open.

  • Line Space Reduction Rate: 75%
  • Line Feed Reduction Rate: 75%
  • Barcode Height Reduction Rate: Not reduce
  • Amount of top margin by backfeed: Disabled
