Add a Logo
Logos are uploaded in the portal and added to printer profiles or quick labels as a feature. Logos use thermal transfer on labels in the color black and uploaded logos listed appear in the dropdown of the feature editor.
Logo files need to be:
- Saved in black and white
- PNG or JPEG file
- Tightly cropped
NOTES
- Colored logos will upload but may not print on labels as desired since thermal printing doesn’t allow printing in grayscale.
- If using a logo on a custom preprinted label, see Printing on Custom Preprinted DateCodeGenie® Labels.
There are 2 ways to upload a logo.
