Printing barcode labels and portable scanner

AlanTeather — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 16:13:58 GMT

Hi folks.

I am hoping to get a barcode scanner ASAP. Can anyone tell me how I print barcode labels or if these are available from square because I cannot find them on the system.

Are barcode labels editable for information please?

Also are there plans to introduce a portable or rechargeable barcode scanner as this would be so much easier than taking products to the till area.

Thank you so much in advance.

Hi Alan

we use the square barcode scanner. To make barcodes we have the brother ql-700 printer to print the barcodes. The free software can make barcodes. We also use free software on the web. I typed “multiple barcode generator”. This allowed me to make my own barcodes.
they are easy to scan into square.
I see you are based in Hartlepool, we are in Durham. Let me know if you want to chat about it.

Hi wonderboom.

So sorry you have not had a reply. The day you replied I thanked you then went back to work. A few days later it was not there.

I replied again thanking you but looking today it still hasn't registered

I thank you immensely for replying to my question and I am horrified my thanks have not been posted.

Once again thank you wonderboom.

I Use Brother QL-810W which is a label printer.

Can use any form of bar code type as well as QR codes etc.
