What to put on barcode labels

  • The barcode, with digits shown underneath
  • A short product or SKU name
  • Enough white space either side of the bars (the quiet zone)

Tips

  • EAN-13 and UPC-A numbers for retail must be licensed from GS1; making up numbers will clash with real products.
  • For internal stock and asset tags, Code 128 encodes any letters and numbers.
  • Print at 100% scale; scaled barcodes may fail to scan.

Questions

Which barcode type should I use?

Retail products: EAN-13 (worldwide) or UPC-A (US/Canada) with a GS1 number. Internal stock, bins and assets: Code 128.

Can I print sequential barcodes?

Use list mode: paste one code per line and set the barcode value to {all}. A spreadsheet can generate the sequence for you.

Why does it say invalid value?

EAN-13 needs 12 or 13 digits and UPC-A 11 or 12; if you type the final check digit it must be correct.
