Print serial-number barcodes from a CSV

Do this in the free app: app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup. Design the label, then print on a Zebra or download PNG / PDF / ZPL.

Manufacturing and RMA desks have a CSV of serials. Barcode {{serial}}, add a model line, print 2×1 or 2×3. Do not type 500 serials into ZebraDesigner. Open the free label maker to do it now.

Good to know: Serial schemes and uniqueness are yours. We do not generate serials.

How to print serial-number barcodes from a CSV

  1. Open the free label maker and set the size of your stock.
  2. Add a native barcode (not an Excel font) and map the spreadsheet column, for example {{code}}. Use a column of one serial per row, no duplicates unless you mean to.
  3. Preview row 1 and a row near the end of the sheet.
  4. Print the stack on a Zebra, or export PDF / ZPL.

Leading zeros again

Save serials as text. SN000198 must not become 198. Same Excel trap as SKUs.

Print or save

Zebra thermal: print from the browser with Browser Print at the printer’s DPI. Everyone else: download PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. JSON keeps the editable master.

Print from your spreadsheet

Map a column, preview a row, then print. No signup.
