Frequently Asked Questions

"Can it do this?" — Yes, most likely! Answers about the free software and our labels.

Software basics

Is the label printing software really free?

Yes, completely free. No feature limits, no trial period, no watermark. Design, barcodes and Excel bulk printing are all included, and updates install automatically.

What computer do I need? Does it run on low-spec PCs?

Windows 10/11 is all you need. It runs light — 4GB RAM and 500MB of disk are enough, so even store POS PCs handle it well.

Will it work with the label printer I already own?

Yes! Zebra, TSC, Godex, BIXOLON, Toshiba, Honeywell, Xprinter and most other label printers are supported. Search your model name once and the software configures the right command language (ZPL/TSPL/EZPL) automatically.

I'm not good with computers. Can I install it?

Yes! Run the installer, then follow the 3-step printer wizard (search model → pick driver → confirm). Most people print their first label within 5 minutes.

Can I save a label and reuse it later?

Yes! Save it as a .glb file and double-click to reopen anytime. Serial numbers continue from where you left off, and you can keep several labels open in tabs.

Features

Can it create barcodes? What about QR codes?

Yes — 64 barcode types including EAN-13 for retail, CODE128, QR, DataMatrix, and GS1 standards (GS1-128, GS1 QR). Values are validated automatically against each spec.

Can I print labels in bulk from an Excel product list?

Yes! Link an Excel (.xlsx/.xls) or CSV file, map columns to the text and barcodes on your label, and one print job produces a different label per row. Per-row quantities are supported too.

Can it print auto-incrementing serial numbers?

Yes! Set the start value, step and digits (0001, 0002…) and the number increases with every label. Prefixes/suffixes like SN- are supported, and progress is saved in the file.

Can it stamp production dates and expiry dates automatically?

Yes! The print-time date/time is inserted automatically in your chosen format, and a day-offset gives you expiry dates like 'production +14 days' without typing.

Can I put my company logo on labels?

Yes! Upload JPG, PNG or SVG. Since label printers print in black, a built-in monochrome conversion keeps logos crisp. Certification and recycling marks are built in as clickable icons.

Can I make table-style labels (like ingredient tables)?

Yes! Draw a table, merge or split cells, and type inside each cell — ideal for food information panels. Korean Food QR is also supported natively.

Can it print on multi-cell label sheets (like A4 sticker sheets)?

Yes! Enter the sheet size and rows × columns, design just one cell, and the software lays out the whole sheet automatically. Round label sheets are supported too.

Can I make long vertical labels?

Yes! Label sizes are free from 10–500mm wide and 5–1000mm tall, with a screen-rotate view for comfortable vertical editing. Text and barcodes rotate in 90° steps.

Printing & printers

Labels come out shifted, or blank labels appear.

That's the printer losing track of label gaps. Run 'Auto detect' (media sensor calibration) in the Troubleshoot menu — it fixes most cases. Also check the media type (gap/continuous/black-mark) matches your stock.

I don't have a label printer yet. Which one should I buy?

It depends on label size, volume and material (direct thermal vs ribbon). Email us your use case — we recommend a printer, bundle the right label stock, and pre-configure everything before shipping.

Label stock & supplies

Which label stock and supplies should I use?

The software works with virtually all commercially available label stock. For best results we recommend Good Label stock — quality-checked with our software and printers, and factory-direct priced.

Can I keep using the label rolls I already have?

Yes! Enter any size in millimeters (10–500 × 5–1000mm) when creating a document and design for your existing stock as-is.

Do you have waterproof, freezer or heat-resistant labels?

Yes — waterproof synthetic stock, freezer-grade (-40°C) labels and heat-resistant materials, all factory-direct. Tell us the environment and we will match material and adhesive.

By industry

I make clothing. Can it print garment care labels?

Yes! US and EU wash-care symbols are built in — click to place washing, bleaching, drying and ironing icons. We also sell satin/nylon care-label stock and 300 dpi care-label printers, set up and ready to print.

I sell online. Can I use it for shipping labels?

Yes! Link your order spreadsheet and print recipient-specific shipping labels in one batch, with CODE128 tracking barcodes generated automatically. We also stock 100×150mm shipping label rolls.

Can I make store price tags and product barcode labels?

Yes! Enter a number and a retail EAN-13 barcode is generated automatically; lay it out with the product name and price. For many SKUs, use Excel linking to print every item at once.

Food manufacturing — ingredient panels and Food QR?

Yes! Build information panels with the table tool, and Korean Food QR (foodqr.kr) is natively supported — enter the product code and a compliant QR is generated. Certification marks are built in.

Does it support GS1 barcodes with lot and expiry (for manufacturing)?

Yes! GS1-128, GS1 DataMatrix and GS1 QR with an AI builder — combine (01) GTIN, (10) lot, (17) expiry, (21) serial and the software validates the format. Combine with Excel for bulk supplier labels.
