It is usually the manufacturer who numbers and labels the packages with barcodes. You can either make barcode originals yourself or hire someone to do it for you, such as a packaging designer, advertising agency, or a printing company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to print barcode labels yourself, you will need an “on demand” printer. We then recommend you to contact a supplier of label printers and software for creating barcodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you get help from a printing company or a similar company please refer them to our size guide.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
