Printer Setup for Roll Label

After creating your roll label template, configure your browser's print dialog — Paper size matching your label, Scale 100%, Margins None — then pick an OS/browser guide for the exact click path.

Verified

After creating your roll label template, configure your browser's print dialog to match.

| Setting | Value | | --------------- | -------------------------------------------- | | Paper size | Match your label exactly (e.g., 57mm × 32mm) | | Scale | 100% or "Actual size" — never "Fit to page" | | Margins | None | | Orientation | Match your template (Portrait or Landscape) |

Steps

  1. In BarcodeMan, select products and click Generate labels.
  2. The PDF opens in your browser. Press Ctrl+P (Windows) or Cmd+P (Mac).
  3. Select your roll label printer.
  4. Set Paper size to your exact label dimensions. If your size isn't listed, create a custom paper size in your printer driver first.
  5. Set Scale to 100%, Margins to None.
  6. Print.

Custom Paper Size

If your label size doesn't appear in the paper size dropdown:

  • Mac: In the print dialog, click the paper size dropdown → Manage Custom Sizes → add your label dimensions.
  • Windows: Open Printer Preferences from Control Panel → find paper size or form settings → add a custom size.

Common Issues

  • Labels too small or too big → Scale is not 100%.
  • Labels offset → Paper size in print dialog doesn't match actual paper.
  • Blank output → Printer is set to the wrong media type. For thermal printers, check that the roll is loaded correctly and the sensor detects the label gap.
