Epson TM-m30III (USB / Ethernet) Thermal Receipt Printer (Black)
The Epson TM-m30III USB/Ethernet is a compact 3-inch (80 mm) direct-thermal receipt printer for retail and hospitality point-of-sale. This is the wired model, USB-A, USB-B, USB-C and Ethernet, ideal where a stable cabled connection is preferred over wireless. Its USB-C port adds network tethering and 18 W Sync & Charge, so it can power and charge a connected tablet. It prints at up to 300 mm/s, fits a 127 mm cube footprint, and ships with the power supply and cable.
Key features
- Wired connectivity, done right: USB-A x2, USB-B, USB-C and 10/100 Ethernet for a reliable, secure tethered POS connection.
- USB-C Sync & Charge (18 W): powers and charges a connected tablet over USB-C, and supports network tethering up to 20 Mbps, fewer cables and power bricks at the counter.
- Fast, quiet printing: up to 300 mm/s direct thermal with a guillotine auto-cutter and drop-in paper loading.
- Tiny footprint, flexible exit: a 127 x 127 x 127 mm cube that runs top-exit or front-exit to suit tight counters and kiosks.
- Built for busy venues: IPX2 water-resistant, antimicrobial enclosure and a built-in cash-drawer kick-out port.
- In the box, ready to go: printer, power supply (PSU) and cable included; backed by a 2-year return-to-base warranty.

Frequently asked questions
Will this work with my POS software or system?
It depends on your POS software. Most receipt printers, including this one, use standard ESC/POS (and OPOS / JavaPOS) drivers and work with a wide range of POS systems, but some cloud POS apps (for example Square) only support specific models. To avoid ordering the wrong device, check this model against your POS provider's supported-hardware list, or contact our team on 1300 026 062 and we'll confirm compatibility with your setup before you buy.
Does this model have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth?
What is USB-C "Sync & Charge"?
The USB-C port delivers up to 18 W of power to a connected device, so it can charge a tablet at the POS while also handling data, and supports network tethering at up to 20 Mbps. That means fewer cables and power adapters on the counter.
What's the difference between the TM-m30III and the TM-m30II?
The TM-m30III is the newer generation, it adds a USB-C port with Sync & Charge and network tethering, and (on the wireless model) built-in Wi-Fi where the m30II needed a dongle. Same compact footprint and 300 mm/s speed.
What paper does the TM-m30III use?
Standard 80 mm direct-thermal receipt rolls (58 mm is selectable), up to an 83 mm roll diameter, the common 80 x 80 mm till roll fits perfectly. No ink or ribbon is needed.
Does it include the power supply and cable?
Yes, this listing includes the printer, the power supply (PSU) and the cable, so it's ready to set up out of the box.
Can it open a cash drawer?
Yes. It has a built-in cash-drawer kick-out port, so a compatible RJ-style cash drawer opens automatically when a sale is finalised.
What warranty does it come with?
It's backed by a 2-year (24-month) return-to-base warranty.
Application use cases
- Wired retail checkout: a stable Ethernet or USB connection at a fixed counter, with a cash-drawer trigger built in.
- Tablet POS via USB-C: power and charge the tablet from the printer's 18 W USB-C port, one less adapter on the bench.
- Hospitality & cafe: compact enough for a crowded service station; reliable cabled printing for high-traffic ordering.
- Kiosks & tight counters: the 127 mm cube with top- or front-exit printing fits where larger printers won't.
