Getting the best print quality (DPI and printer settings)
Print resolution (DPI)
In Settings and in the print dialog you can set Print resolution:
- 203 — thermal label printers
- 300 — laser printers (default)
- 600 — high-resolution devices
Continuous-feed rolls often print best at 203 DPI on thermal printers. Very small labels may automatically print at a higher effective DPI; the app can show a note when that happens.
Browser print settings
When your browser print dialog opens:
- Set scale to 100% (not “Fit to page”).
- Set margins to None (or the minimum your printer allows).
- Choose the correct paper size for sheets.
- Turn off headers and footers.
Wrong scale is the most common cause of misaligned sheet labels.
Align to your sheet
- Select the same Sheet or roll template you bought.
- Load paper according to your printer’s tray guides.
- Print one test page and adjust if your printer consistently shifts.
Barcodes and QR codes
Low DPI or heavy compression can make barcodes hard to scan. Prefer the DPI that matches your printer type, keep codes large enough, and test with a scanner.
