Hello all,

I'm trying to print a barcode from Excel to a Zebra printer. The barcode is scannable, but the print is showing a lot of artifact.
All of the text (even really small fonts) looks fine/sharp when being printed.
I tried a .jpg and a .png variant of the barcode in the label. Is there any way to improve this?
Some picture printing or compression setting i dont know about for ZEBRA printers?

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
The issue isn't in the printer. The issue is the print quality, when printing an image from an excel sheet.
I was just looking for people with similar experience and to see if the only way around this would be to print the barcode with actual barcode fonts!
