Integrated Label Printing Setup with QZ Tray
Syncrostore supports integrated barcode label printing through QZ Tray. Once configured, labels are sent directly to your label printer without browser print dialogs or additional printer configuration.
Important Notes About QZ Tray Printing
This article assumes:
- QZ Tray is already installed and running
- Your printer drivers are properly installed at the operating system level
- Your default label size and label type are already configured in your local printer preferences
QZ Tray and Syncrostore do not modify your printer’s hardware settings, label sizes, paper dimensions, darkness, orientation, or calibration settings. Syncrostore simply sends a print job to QZ Tray, and QZ Tray forwards that print job to your locally installed printer using the printer’s existing default configuration.
If your printer is configured for the wrong label size locally, the printer may:
- Print incorrect dimensions
- Print blank labels
- Print only a single label
- Misalign barcodes or content
- Feed incorrectly
Before troubleshooting Syncrostore, please confirm your printer can successfully print the correct label size directly from your operating system and manufacturer tools.
If you continue experiencing issues with integrated printing, we recommend uninstalling QZ Tray and returning to the standard PDF generation workflow. Many vendors successfully use the PDF workflow by downloading labels from Syncrostore and printing them through their local printer software or PDF viewer.
