Retail Barcode Labels

Jan. 3, 2019

Hate when you have an app that works great and it is replaced by one that takes a lot more steps to get my work done and it does not even print the labels correctly. Cons... -Way too may screens to just print labels -Defaults to the number of units you have on hand so in my case I need 1 label and it wanted to print 1125 labels. -Does not print centered on my Dymo labels (I actually can't use this app the way it is printing, it is just not the professional image I want for my company.) Pros -If you have not already invested in a label printer it will let you use your normal printer and label sheets -Can customize the labels a little more -If you never used the previous app, this one probably won't drive you nuts.

Every update is worse and worse. More work and more time spent, just to print barcodes. This is hands down the worst feature of Shopify and one of the most common. I really don't understand why they keep making this app more and more terrible.

This app is awful. The other app worked just fine for my business. This app cuts off words and just adds a "..." to the end. Are my customers supposed to guess what the rest of the words say? This app is terrible. Way to make our jobs harder guys!

It seems like Shopify's trying their best to make improvements, but this app is not very helpful yet. Pro... #1 I can now use it in Chrome on my PC! Woo hoo! Before in the old app you could only use it on a PC. I have an iPad, but there's no way to hook the printer up to an iPad. Here are my issues with it... #1 - I use the 30332 label and that paper size is not available for me when I go to actually print. #2 - Instead of auto reducing the size of the product title text, it just cuts it off which is frustrating. #3 - Creating Barcodes doesn't allow me to pick the size of the barcode from what I can tell in the directions. I'm too afraid to try it otherwise as we have over a thousand variants. #4 - It's great to save time at the checkout with barcodes, but it sure would be nice to have some sort of inventory update process. EX: Enter Inventory Mode... Scan a label and update how many you have on stock. #5 - Not sure how to fix this one, but if I just want to quickly print a few of one variant it's click intensive. Example: 1, Select All Products, type "product name" in search, select product, select more actions, select print barcode labels, find desired variant and enter 3 barcode labels to print, click inside and change the other 5-16 variants to 0, select print, select send to printer, select print again if your print options are correct. Total time: 53 seconds going as fast as I can.... I have to wait for many screens to load. Total Clicks: 10 including one click as typing in the product name. Dymo Software: 25 seconds and 6 clicks... clicks including typing the actual product name out. Conclusion... if the app assigns the correct style of barcode for the dymo printer, then I think creating barcodes for all your products would be awesome with this app. (The old app wouldn't assign the correct style of barcode for me to use the small LW barcodes) I won't be using it unfortunately to print my barcodes though until they get it to work with the 30332 paper size and work with less clicks. BTW... I'd be happy to be a tester if you guys need a client to test things out.

Disappointed with app no adjust-ability, cuts off titles without shrinking, lacking on title adjustments.

Half baked. The old barcode printer app was due for some improvements but it worked and this isn't an improvement. defaults to the total number of items in stock regardless of location. Loads of printer selection and print preview steps. When It actually printed for me the barcodes are unreadable by the scanner. Back to the drawing board.

I had the original "Barcode Printer" app and it worked well, but this one is juts bad. Cannot export labels to the DYMO app, and the preset sizes suck! When it does print its cut off or not proportionate. Gone through 5-10 labels trying to get sizing right.

This app is terrible. This app is terrible. This app is terrible. This app is terrible. Bring back the old one.

Been unable to print with my Dymo label printer, contacted support but getting nowhere. Basically the app is all setup, when I press print the labels come out but are completely blank! No information on them at all. Printer works fine when printing labels outside of Shopify!

The older app allowed me to print directly off the products page, I could click "Print Barcodes" and it would open a new page where you could enter how many Barcodes you needed printed for each variation of your item. Once you selected the amount, you clicked print, and the Dymo printer would start to print. This app is UNUSABLE. After selecting to print Barcodes for an item, it brings you to a page that has you select the template size of the barcode you are printing and Qty. This would be amazing if once you clicked "Print" on this screen it would allow you to print. But no, it opens up another page, for a "print preview" and asks you to click another time, "Send to Printer". Once you select that, it brings you to ANOTHER entire Tab/Page, where it prompts your printing settings, and doesn't even recognize the Template that you just choose, then on top of that, once you go thru the list of the paper size, the two codes we use 30332 and 30336 are not existent. If you now click "Print using System Dialog" it'll prompt ANOTHER print screen, where you can choose paper size again, and you can finally find the correct size template that you choose 4 pages back and 10 clicks ago. Now I hit print thinking I've finally acquired the tags I need. Nope, the Tops are cut off, hmm lets shrink it to 75% , nope the bottom is cut off. PLEASE LET ME DOWNLOAD THE OLD APP AGAIN!

Update- So it's now working decently in the Edge browser, but still not working in Chrome so no longer a 1 star review, but until it works in Chrome, I am not giving it a 5 star review. I see that Shopify is rolling out this as a replacement for it's current label app, but you cannot scan the barcode that prints out on a Dymo Small label, so that had better be fixed.

THIS - This app is almost perfect... It's only flaw is the character limit assigned to the first line of the label. If you are over the character limit, it cuts off your title and adds in "..." at the end, instead of shrinking the title size to fit to the barcode like EVERY other app out there. Simply not usable until that is changed.

Why did you replace an important app with something that doesn't service worldwide? Are you indirectly asking us to stop using your softwares? I spoke t o one of the developers of this app and came to know that this app doesn't support INR currency and hence we can't use this app. The other alternative is to use DYMO app but it has the most complicated interface. We can''t even export barcode labels like before. Extremely disappointed with Shopify. Old Review (December 2018) I started using this app since the barcode printer app started flashing that's its gonna get removed in March 2019. Its not picking the price of the product. Everything else gets printed but M.R.P. is not getting printed. We entered both Price and compare price to test but nothing gets printed in price field. Please help.

It's great. You can change the order of the data so it can show the price bigger. I would give it five star if it would print directly instead of open another page. My clients are compleining since the euro sign shows before the price and too close. They see € 4,95 instead of €94,95 and i should be 94,95 €

I love this app! Finally an easy way to make the labels and assign barcodes to products.....and this app is FREE!! This app is very easy to use and I am able to quickly create labels with barcodes.

Like everything on Shopify....doesn't work. Prints wrong orientation or not at all, but shame on me. Fool me once, when I decided to use Shopify, shame on them, fool me twice, when I thought Shopify would support the hardware they recommend and sell to you, shame on me. There goes another $120 bucks, on the plus side it Dymo printer looks very nice sitting next to the Rollo printer they sold me that also doesn't work. I got a real nice collection of paper weights going on here.

I do NOT agree with the previous rating AT ALL. Yeah, it would be great to have it shrink, however why would you even want to have such a long description there? Does not make sense, so the criticism does not either. Works absolutely fine here. I actually absolutely love this app. So easy to use, great customization, great options, such labels would make our products look even more professional. Highly recommend.
