A CSV is a plain list: names, SKUs, addresses. If you already have that file, you do not need to rebuild it in Excel. Design one label in the free label maker, upload the CSV, print a label for every row.

Good to know: The first line must be headers. If the column is called name, the label needs {{name}}.

How to print from a CSV file

  1. Save or export a .csv with a header row.
  2. Open the free label maker and set the sticker size.
  3. Put {{name}} (or your column name) on the label. Add a barcode with {{sku}} if you have that column.
  4. Open Variables. Upload the CSV. Preview two rows. Print.

Sample CSV

A simple product list looks like this when you open it in a text editor.

name,sku,price
Lavender soap,SOAP-12,8.00
Pine candle,CAND-04,14.00
Canvas tote,TOTE-01,18.00

The first line is the header. Those words go on the label in curly braces, like {{name}}.

Got Excel instead? Same steps: many labels from Excel or CSV.

Print or save

Print on a Zebra from the browser, or download PNG or PDF if you print another way.

Upload the CSV and print

One label. Every row in the file.
