How do I make daycare name labels?

Export the roster, set a small sticker size in the free label maker, map the child’s name, preview two rows, then print extras. Leave home addresses off unless policy requires them.

Do I need ZebraDesigner or a paid license?

No. Design in the browser and print with Zebra Browser Print, or export PNG, PDF, or ZPL. No desktop designer seat.

Can I print a whole list from Excel?

Yes. Map a column into text, a barcode, or a QR code, preview a row, then print the stack. The file stays in your browser.
