How to a get a larger version of a QR code for print?

[AllStory]

I've successfully created the QR codes I need, but they are really small (1.67" at 72 dpi). I'd love them to be that size or larger at 300 dpi. I've searched the archive and looked around the Square site but haven't yet found what I need. Any help will be most appreciated! Thanks.

Hi AllStory,

Square's QR Code seems to be only one size - you can enlarge it using most any photo or graphic editing app, however, it can get a bit distorted depending on how big you go.  The other work around is to use a free online service like this one whereas you can easily go bigger or any size with no distortion.  All you need to do is copy the link that is generated by Square's QR Code generator and past the link into the detail box of the free online service.  It's quite easy and works well and the plus side is you can the same service to generate other types Barcodes.  Square features and options are not one size fits all so sometimes you have to go outside the box.

@AllStory :

You could also create other QR codes for Free through any spreedsheet or Document.  Here is a video for this and a free download to make QR codes.

How are you trying to Print the QR codes?

There are other free software sites that can generate a QR code for you.  

For example : https://www.qrcode-monkey.com/ 

Then you download a graphic and can print it out with your printer.   Now if you are trying to have a Larger or Smaller QR code printed through Square, that will not work currently.  Square has minimmal adjustments for its printer settings.

To adjust my QR codes for my shelf tags, I use my direct thermals printers software to create and resize the Barcodes or QR codes.  This is all setup on a dedicated printer and not through Square.
