Thermal Printer Configuration Tips
- Driver Page Size: Ensure your thermal printer driver (TVS RP 3200, Zebra ZD230, TSC TE244, Citizen CL-S621) is configured to match the exact roll size (e.g.
Width: 104mm, Height: 25mmfor 50x25 2-ups). - Browser Margins: In the browser print dialog (Ctrl+P / Cmd+P), expand More Settings and set Margins to 'None'.
- Scale Setting: Keep Scale at 100% or 'Fit to printable area'.
- Darkness / Density: For direct thermal paper, set printer darkness to 8-10 to prevent barcode bleeding.
Choosing the Right Symbology
- Code 128: The universal high-density industrial standard. Supports uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Highly recommended for internal SKU and inventory tracking.
- EAN-13: International 13-digit standard for retail POS scanning in India and worldwide (GS1 registered).
- Code 39: Widely used in government, automotive, and defense sectors with self-checking capabilities.
- UPC-A: Standard 12-digit retail barcode primarily used in North America.
