Label printing guide

1. The four layouts

Every layout comes in A4 and Letter and can be printed in room colors or black & white.

• Big — the largest labels.
• Standard — a balanced size for everyday boxes.
• Compact — smaller labels for small boxes and bins.
• QR stickers — small QR stickers, handy for printing blank and assigning later.

The free version includes 2 label layouts; Cajify Pro unlocks all layouts and colors.

2. Choosing label paper

Use A4 sheets with A4 layouts and Letter sheets with Letter layouts. Any sheet that matches the layout grid works; the app shows the Avery / L-series reference for each layout, so you can take it to the store.

Pick paper made for your printer type (inkjet or laser). Matte labels are easier to scan than glossy ones under bright light.

3. Printer settings

• Scale: 100% / Actual size.
• Turn off Fit to page, “Shrink to fit” or any automatic scaling.
• Paper size: the same as your sheets (A4 or Letter).
• Turn off borderless printing and borderless scaling.
• Choose a label or heavy paper type if your printer offers one.

4. Calibrate with a test page

1. Print one page of labels on plain paper.
2. Place it on top of a label sheet and hold both up to the light.
3. If the labels sit inside the outlines, print on the label sheet. If not, check the settings above — scaling and paper size cause most misalignment.
4. Note which way your printer feeds paper so you load label sheets the right way up.

5. Room colors or black & white

Room colors make it easy to see at a glance where a box goes. Black & white saves color ink and works on any printer.

6. Print blank stickers first, assign as you pack

You don't need to plan every box in advance.

1. Print a sheet of blank QR stickers.
2. Stick one on each box as you pack it.
3. Scan the sticker and assign it to a box: pick the room, list what's inside and snap photos.
