ECG Recording Paper and Charts for Cardiograph Printers
ECG recording paper is the thermal chart media that cardiographs and monitors print the tracing onto, and it is platform-specific by size and fold. The catalog stocks thermal ECG paper in z-fold and roll formats sized to common cardiograph and monitor printers, with the red grid used for cardiac measurement. Products in this category include paper grouped by GE, Philips, Welch Allyn, Schiller, Nihon Kohden, Mortara and Burdick platforms.
ECG Paper Formats Stocked
- Z-fold thermal packs - Fan-folded thermal ECG paper for cart-based cardiographs, sized to the printer bay of the platform.
- Thermal roll paper - Rolled thermal paper for portable cardiographs and rhythm printers.
- Red-grid diagnostic paper - Standard red-grid thermal paper for 12-lead diagnostic recording and measurement.
- Monitor strip paper - Narrow thermal paper for bedside monitor and telemetry rhythm strips.
- Platform-matched packs - Paper grouped by cardiograph model to keep the size, grid and fold correct for the installed printer.
- Archival-grade options - Thermal paper stocked where longer record retention is a factor.
ECG Paper Sizes and Formats
| Format | Fold | Common Widths | Typical Device |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic z-fold | Fan-fold pack | 210 mm, 216 mm | Cart cardiographs |
| Portable z-fold | Fan-fold pack | 145 mm, 150 mm | Portable ECG machines |
| Roll paper | Roll | 50 mm, 80 mm | Rhythm and monitor printers |
Thermal Media and Platform Fit
ECG paper is thermal media, so the tracing is printed by heat rather than ink and the paper must match the printer's width, fold and grid. Cart-based cardiographs use z-fold packs, portable units use smaller z-fold or roll paper, and bedside monitors use narrow roll strips. Because each printer bay is sized for a specific paper, the catalog groups paper by cardiograph and monitor model so the reorder stays matched to the installed fleet. Grid color and spacing follow the standard used for cardiac measurement.
ECG recording paper is a pure consumable that reorders on a steady cycle wherever cardiographs and monitors are in daily use, and mismatched paper is a common cause of avoidable printer jams and reprints. Keeping the correct z-fold and roll sizes stocked for each platform in service is a routine standing-order item for cardiology and med-surg units, which is why paper is grouped by machine model.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between z-fold and roll ECG paper?
Z-fold paper is fan-folded into a flat pack that feeds cart-based cardiographs, while roll paper is wound on a core for portable machines and monitor rhythm printers. The format is determined by the printer bay of the device, so the catalog stocks both and groups each by the platforms that use it.
How is ECG paper matched to a specific cardiograph?
ECG paper is matched by width, fold and grid to the printer in the machine, because each cardiograph and monitor bay is sized for a particular paper. The catalog groups thermal paper by GE, Philips, Welch Allyn, Schiller, Nihon Kohden and other platforms so the reorder stays correct for the installed device and avoids feed and print problems.
What paper widths are stocked for ECG machines?
The catalog stocks diagnostic z-fold packs in common cart widths around 210 to 216 mm, portable z-fold in narrower widths around 145 to 150 mm, and roll paper in monitor and rhythm-strip widths around 50 to 80 mm. Exact width availability is listed per platform-matched product.
Can facilities order ECG recording paper in bulk?
Yes. Thermal ECG paper in z-fold and roll formats is stocked in case and bulk quantities for hospitals, cardiology practices, primary care groups, long-term care facilities and licensed distributors. Standing order programs are available for high-use paper SKUs matched to the installed cardiographs. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup.
What ECG paper should be in a facility formulary?
An ECG paper formulary typically covers the z-fold diagnostic packs sized to each cart cardiograph in service, portable z-fold or roll paper for handheld machines, and narrow roll strips for bedside monitors and telemetry, all in the correct grid and fold for the platforms in use.
