Running my own shipping setup for a small online store this spring has been mostly fine except for the labeling part that’s eating up way too much time with mother’s day orders rolling in. I need to create barcodes, qr codes and proper shipping labels from excel data on thermal rolls but nothing merges cleanly. The free tools I tried either watermark everything or break on larger runs and the basic printer software can’t keep up. I’ve looked at a few paid barcode generators around a couple hundred bucks but I’m cautious after past disappointments. anyone handling their own shipping actually found a barcode generator that makes this step straightforward?
