POS label sizes

May 26, 2005 0 Replies

Is there a most common thermal label size for retailers? I (stupidly ?) bought 1.12x1" labels for my Cognitive Blaster LX thermal printer, hoping to:


  1. Not waste labels
  2. Make sure my labels could fit on as many items as possible

Seems like a mistake though -- getting the item name, description, price AND barcode on that label seems difficult.I tried to design my own labels, but the 128A barcode I used was cramped to say the least.



Is there a most common retail label size? My RMS vendor suggested 2.3x1" labels. The extra real estate seems nice, but I am still concerned about waste.



Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.



BTW, if anyone wants 1.12"x1" labels, contact me privately for a heck of a deal ['scuse the "marketplace" content].



Thanks.
