Custom Barcode Label Printing
At labelmakers.com, we can print barcodes and QR codes directly on your roll labels. Barcodes can be embedded in your artwork or supplied separately in an Excel file. We offer a wide selection of paper and film materials suitable for high-quality barcode printing.
For sequentially numbered barcodes, simply provide the required number range. If your project requires variable or non-sequential numbering, just send us your data in an Excel file—we’ll take care of the rest. From UPC, Code 128, and Code 39 to QR codes, we produce barcode labels for a wide range of business applications.
What Is a Barcode?
A barcode is a machine-readable code used to store and retrieve product information quickly and accurately. It enables products to be identified throughout manufacturing, warehousing, shipping, and retail operations.
To ensure reliable scanning, barcodes must be printed with the correct dimensions, proportions, and sufficient clear space around the code. As a general guideline, we recommend a minimum barcode width of 1 inch and a height of 0.5 inches. The required size may vary depending on the barcode format, scanning distance, and your specific application.

When Are Barcode Labels Used?
Barcode labels are essential for product identification, inventory management, shipping, and retail distribution. Many retailers, marketplaces, and logistics providers require products to carry a unique barcode for tracking and scanning. To order barcode labels, simply provide your barcode data or unique code, and labelmakers.com will generate and print high-quality barcodes on your labels.
Can Barcode Labels Be Printed in Color?
Barcode labels can include color, provided the barcode itself maintains sufficient contrast for reliable scanning. In most applications, a dark barcode printed on a light, non-reflective background delivers the best results. Adequate clear space around the barcode is also essential to ensure consistent scan performance.
