Barcode or QR?
Both work at the counter. A barcode gun such as the Honeywell 1470g reads both, and a phone camera reads QR codes easily, even small ones. QR codes also fit on smaller labels. Tizo POS prints QR stickers, and pieces that already carry the company's barcode are scanned as they are, with no sticker needed.
Choose the label size
| Size | Good for |
|---|---|
| 50 × 25 mm | Most clothing tags: shop name, item, size and price next to the QR |
| 38 × 25 mm | Small tags, kids-wear |
| 50 × 30 mm or 64 × 38 mm | A big price, or more text |
| 25 × 25 mm | QR and code only, for very small items |
| A4 sticker sheets | No label printer yet: any office printer |
Set up the label printer (TSC TE244 or similar)
- Labels and ribbonThe TE244 prints on direct thermal labels without a ribbon, or on paper labels with a wax ribbon. Thermal transfer with a ribbon lasts longer and doesn't fade in sunlight.
- Install the driverInstall the printer's Windows driver from TSC, and set the paper to your label size (for example 50 × 25 mm) with the gap between labels (usually 2 – 3 mm).
- CalibrateLet the printer measure the labels (auto-calibration, as in its manual) so every print starts at the top of a label.
- Print a testPrint one label and scan it with your gun or phone before printing hundreds.

- PrintIn the print window choose the label printer, Margins: None, Scale: 100%. On the counter PC app it prints straight away.
Where to stick it
- On the hang tag, not on the fabric: stickers can mark silk and delicate cloth.
- Flat, away from folds and seams, so the gun reads it in one go.
- The same place on every piece, so staff know where to aim.
- On a partly used A4 sheet, start at the next free label (Start at label) so no sticker is wasted.
