Customisable Barcode Labels and More Printing Sizes
Platform: 🌐 Web
Mobile updates: Android and iOS
Printing barcode labels in myBillBook is now more flexible. You can choose from multiple label sizes, customize the information displayed on each barcode, and manage label quantities for multiple items from one dedicated printing screen.
What’s New
1. Choose from Multiple Barcode Label Sizes
You are no longer restricted to a single barcode label size.
You can now select from commonly used label sizes based on your printer and sticker roll.
A4 or regular printer sizes:
64 × 38 mm
42 × 23 mm
52.5 × 25 mm
70 × 37 mm
Label printer sizes:
38 × 25 mm
50 × 25 mm
100 × 50 mm
myBillBook also remembers your saved barcode settings, so you don’t need to configure them every time you print.
2. Customise the Information Shown on Labels
You can decide which details should appear on your barcode labels.
Show or hide standard information such as:
Business name
Item name
MRP
Selling price
Batch number
Manufacturing date
Expiry date
You can also include up to six item custom fields, such as Brand, Colour, Material, Category, Rack Number, or Internal Code.
Fields without any value for an item will automatically be hidden from that item’s label.
3. Adjust Font Size and Text Style
Make important information easier to read by changing the font size of individual fields.
You can:
Select a font size between 8 and 36
Make important fields bold
Keep other fields in regular text
Preview all changes before printing
The live preview helps you check whether the information fits properly on the selected label size.
4. Print Barcodes for Multiple Items Together
Select one or more items from the Items page and open the new Barcode Print screen.
From this screen, you can:
Add more items
Remove items
Search for items
Set a different label quantity for each item
Print up to 100 labels per item
Download the labels as a PDF
Open the browser print window directly
Labels are generated in the same order in which the items appear on the print screen.
5. Generate Missing Item Codes While Printing
Items without an item code or SKU are clearly marked as Code missing.
You can generate the item code directly from the barcode printing screen. Items without a code will not be included until the code is generated.
6. Simplified Barcode Printing
Barcode labels are now generated using a PDF-based printing flow.
The previous third-party label printing software is no longer required. You can print labels directly using your browser’s print dialogue.
Cancelling the browser print window will not remove your selected items, quantities, or label settings, allowing you to make changes and print again.
7. Updated Barcode Actions on Mobile
On Android and iOS, the barcode action buttons now appear in the following order:
Delete → Share → Download → Print
The helper text on the mobile barcode screen has also been updated.
Barcode customisation and label-size settings are currently available on the web. Custom fields configured on the web will not be reflected when viewing barcodes on mobile.
