Printing from airtable to a rolled label printer

[Travis_Shields]

I have used the block “Page Designer” to create a 3x5 label which I would like to then print to a rolled label printer one at a time or as needed. We will affix these labels to the front of our job folders for internal use. Has anyone used a Rollo Label Printer – Commercial Grade Direct Thermal High Speed Printer or something comparable to accomplish this? It appears this type printer is used mainly for shipping purposes, and I am worried airtable will not communicate well with it for printing purposes. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I checked out the safari print preferences there is absolutely not way to set print margins. It goes by the print driver. So I guess I can’t do it to the Demo.

Hi @Tracy_Robinson

How about this link? It gives instructions on how to do boarderless printing in the print driver for a Mac:

None of that works. The page size that I want to print is 2.125 x 4 inches. There is no borderless printing option available on the print driver for a Dymo printer. I also have an HP printer. It overlords my mac even when the default printer is Dymo. This is the cause of my frustration. HP laser color printer cannot do borderless. It is not an option and when the print setting window comes up you cannot access it. I have found a way around it. I download my table the way I want it and use a merge file in Word to create my labels. Then it prints to the Dymo printer in the setup I have with he borders I have without cutting it off. This also allows me to not pay for page designer block.

Hi @Tracy_Robinson

I am glad that you were able to resolve your issue, eventhough it ended up taking a workaround approach to get the outcome you wanted.

In the event that you’re utilizing the Airtable work area application, you can print a joined PDF (accepting for a moment that you’re seeing the PDF utilizing the implicit watcher) by picking Record - - > Print from the application menu. A Munbyn Label Printer helps you do all this.
