How I design labels for the Munbyn Thermal Printer

How I design labels for the Munbyn Thermal Printer - Using paid and FREE software

Күн бұрын

Since being sent the Munbyn Thermal Printer to test, I have used it almost everyday in the shop and still love it as much as the day I tested it. Although many use this printer for shipping labels, it does so much more!!! Today I am going to show how easy it is to design labels for your printer using both paid and free software.
The printer works with MAC, Windows and ChromeOS. If you are using Google Chrome, you don't need to install the printer driver, just add the extension - Munbyn Printer Extension, you can print directly from Google Chrome. Here is the link to the extension: chrome.google.com/webstore/de...
If you are interested in the printer, check out these links. These links will take you to the Australian page but change the flag in the top corner to get to the right country so you get the right printer for your shipping countries. If you are in Australia, be sure to select the pro for Australia post and the basic for all other postal labels.

The label paper: munbyn.biz/3vMIi9v
The colour stickers: munbyn.biz/3KOWKBU
The label holder: munbyn.biz/3l0TU2v
Thank you for watching!

Not sure if you have found out since this video is about a year old, but, you dont need to manually feed the labels to the front, the printer grabs it and pulls it to the front and like that, you dont "waste" those two labels. In short, you put the first label in the back of the printer, the printer pulls it, and voila! all done with no extra labels in the front :)

Yes, thermal printing will fade over time - think of receipts you get from shops. These are usually thermal printed. Heat also affects them, so they may not make the best labels for candles.

@SlowPCGaming1 2 ай бұрын

Not all thermal printers are limited to single color printing. It depends on the paper being used and the print technology. For example, Zero Ink printers (aka ZINC) have full color printing capabilities. The print head for that type of thermal printing paper works differently that this simpler type of thermal printer. ZINC papers will change color if exposed to the right amount of heat and duration to trigger one or more of the three color sub-layers. One color per layer within the paper itself. Thermal printers tend to have the lowest print quality as well. Anywhere from 300x300 DPI at the high end or lower. These are all essentially draft modes for receipt printers.

@SoyandShea 2 ай бұрын

It is still important to note that a thermal printer does not print colour. It works off of heat as I explain in video. It is true that you can get colour if you have the right paper but at the time of making this video, munbyn did not have it so i wasn't about to go into the science of it and confuse people when its a sponsored video. They do have limited ones now. Thermal Printers can be useful for many short term projects like shipping labels and of course as receipt printers which I have. I do not recommend them for items that need long lasting labels or come into contact with heat.

what do you do when the labels dont align?

@SoyandShea 5 күн бұрын

Usually, if labels don't align, it means there is a user error. Either it has not been loaded straight or the measurements are off. I try reloading the paper and I check both my artboard is the right and the paper is the right size.

5:00 Put anything on top of the cables, it would solve the issue just the same.

That won't really solve it. The wires need to go under something so they don't rock. It's a design flaw

Why won't it print your colored hearts? I thought it printed in color as well as grayscale

@SoyandShea Жыл бұрын

The printer is thermal meaning it burns the image into the paper. Grayscale is not colour. It will do varying shades of black including grey by changing the degree of heat.

You’re supposed to feed the paper through the back so there is no waisted paper

@SoyandShea Жыл бұрын

I am actually feeding it through the back per the instructions that come with the machine. The wasted stickers was annoying me and I have since found a video put out by Munbyn showing an alternative way to load the stickers. I will show in a future video 😁

Talking about a spelling mistake, have a look at your invigorating (invigotating) shampoo disc package. Thanks for this video, very informative.

Thanks. It will be fixed on next print run

Why didn’t you show us the steps to print? 😢

@SoyandShea 3 күн бұрын

For a number of reasons. As I explained in the video, the screen recorder I had at the time didn't record the actions in the program I use for designing, so it would have been difficult to see the screen. The steps are standard to printing anything from software in that you select print, the paper size and print. This is the third video in this series. And the first couple do show that process.
