ZebraDesigner Pro 3 and Google Sheets. Free
Open warehouse inventory template
ZebraDesigner Pro 3 still doesn't connect to Google Sheets, even after you pay. Open the free label maker, publish the sheet as CSV, paste the URL, and print one label per row on a Zebra. That's the free alternative for a team that lives in Google.
How to print Google Sheets without ZebraDesigner Pro 3
- In Google Sheets, publish the tab as CSV and copy the link.
- Open the free label maker. Set size and DPI.
- Click column names onto the label. Paste the published URL.
- Preview. Choose Zebra. Print the rows you checked.
You paid, or you almost paid, because the team already keeps SKUs in Google Sheets. Professional 3 wanted an Excel file on a Windows PC instead.
ZebraDesigner Professional 3 and Google Sheets don't connect
The paid database wizard talks to Excel, Access, or CSV on disk. Not a live Sheet. You'd export, re-link, fight over whose laptop has the current file. Here the published CSV URL is the link. The team keeps editing. You load and print.
That's a ZebraDesigner Pro 3 Google Sheets free alternative. Same click-a-column merge you'd hoped Pro would do. Mac works.
Excel still works if someone emails a workbook. Related: use Google Sheets with ZebraDesigner 3 · how to print labels from Google Sheets to Zebra.
When you're ready to print or save
If a Zebra is plugged in, print from the browser. Set 203, 300, or 600 DPI to match the printer. On a regular printer, choose Print from this computer. You can also download a PNG, a PDF, or the ZPL code a Zebra reads. Save a JSON file if you want to open this label again later, spreadsheet included.
