Labels from your online store in one click

It depends on how many labels you print and where the data comes from:

• Industry and logistics (databases, automation, many printers): professional software such as BarTender or CODESOFT, sold as subscriptions.
• Zebra printers: ZebraDesigner Essentials is free for simple label design.
• Online stores wanting price, barcode or shipping labels straight from their Shopify, PrestaShop or WooCommerce products and orders: PrinterTag does it from the browser, with no templates to design, and is free up to 50 labels a month.

See the comparison with prices above.

It is a Chrome and Microsoft Edge extension. Open a product or an order in your store, click the PrinterTag icon and the data (name, price, SKU, barcode, shipping address) is already on the label. Choose a template and size, check the preview and print.

No accounts and no template design: price, barcode and shipping labels are ready to use.

• Shopify: product page, product list (selected or all visible), orders and draft orders, with every variant. It reads the data with your own admin session.
• PrestaShop and WooCommerce: product fields in the admin panel.
• Any store that publishes product data in schema.org format, which most well-ranked stores do.

If a page has no data, you can type it in the extension.

• For A4 sheets or printing through the printer driver: no, just the extension.
• For direct printing on Zebra: you need Zebra Browser Print, Zebra's free program for Windows and Mac (Zebra asks you to fill in a short form to download it). If it is missing, the extension gives you the link and the step-by-step guide.
• For direct printing on other brands (TSC, SATO, Toshiba, Honeywell): an optional PrinterTag helper for Windows is coming. Meanwhile, print through their driver.

PrinterTag is a Chrome and Microsoft Edge extension: both browsers share the same engine and extensions. It is tested on Windows; on a Mac it runs inside Chrome or Edge just like on Windows for driver and A4 printing.

Direct printing to Zebra uses Zebra Browser Print, which Zebra offers for Windows and Mac. The helper for other brands will be Windows only. Firefox and Safari are not available yet.

• Thermal label printers of any brand (Zebra, TSC, SATO, Toshiba, Honeywell, Datamax, Godex, Brother QL, Dymo…) through their driver.
• Zebra direct, in its own language (ZPL), independent of the driver, with darkness and speed control. The extension detects the printer resolution (203, 300 or 600 dpi).
• Office laser or inkjet printers, with A4 label sheets.

It works with both thermal transfer (ribbon) and direct thermal printers.

Rolls: 50×25, 40×30, 57×32, 62×29, 100×50, 4×6" (102×152) and 104×147 mm, or any size with the "Custom" option.

A4 sheets: the most common Avery and compatible formats: 8, 10, 14, 21, 24, 40 and 65 labels per sheet.

EAN-13 and UPC-A for retail products, and Code 128 for SKUs, internal references or order numbers. If an EAN check digit is wrong, the extension warns you before printing.

With direct printing, each bar is snapped to the printer's exact dots so scanners read it well even at 203 dpi.

• Variants: every size or colour of a product at once.
• Shopify product list: select the ones you want (or none, for all visible) and get one label each.
• Orders: one label per unit sold; 3 units of a product give 3 labels.
• Copies: the copy count multiplies every label.

Yes. From a Shopify order or the order list, the "Shipping address" template prints the customer's address, your sender details (saved for next time) and the order number with its barcode. One label per order; orders without an address (local pickup) are skipped. You can also type an address by hand.

Through the driver, PrinterTag prepares a page at the exact label size and the printer prints it with its Windows or Mac settings. It works with any brand, but size, darkness and speed are set in the driver.

Direct, PrinterTag sends the label in the printer's own language with the size, darkness and speed you choose, regardless of the driver settings. Sharper and fewer problems.

Raise the darkness or lower the speed: in PrinterTag with direct printing, or in the driver preferences otherwise. With a ribbon, the print method must be thermal transfer. Illustrated troubleshooting (Spanish).

It is almost always a missing label size in the driver, or Margins not set to "None" and headers not removed in the Chrome dialog. Direct printing avoids it. Illustrated troubleshooting (Spanish).

Yes: "Start at label no." skips used labels, and the X/Y adjustment corrects in millimetres if the printer prints off-centre. A4 sheet steps (Spanish).

Use direct printing, which snaps bars to the printer resolution, and raise the darkness slightly. For long codes, choose a larger label. Illustrated troubleshooting (Spanish).

It is free up to 50 labels a month, with every feature and no card. Pro, with unlimited labels, costs USD 4.99 a month or USD 39 a year. The extension tells you when you reach 50.

Nothing leaves your computer. PrinterTag reads the page only when you click its icon, draws the label locally and sends it to your printer. No PrinterTag servers, accounts, analytics or ads.

The first time, it shows a privacy notice before reading anything. Your customers' addresses remain your store's responsibility; PrinterTag only helps you print them. More in the privacy policy.

Spanish, for now. The website and the help guide are in Spanish and English.
