02 — SHEET & LABEL

SHEET GEOMETRY · MM

Top and left are measured to the edge of the first label. Pitch is from one label’s left (or top) edge to the next one’s — measure across 5 labels and divide by 5. Editing any value switches to a custom sheet, saved in this browser.

03 — ALIGN TO YOUR PRINTER

  1. Print the calibration page on plain paper.
  2. Hold it over a blank label sheet against the light.
  3. Enter how far to move the print so the crosses land on the label centres.

Positive X moves the print right, positive Y moves it down. Top-left correct but bottom-right off? The spacing is wrong, not the offset — fix the pitch under Sheet geometry.

QUESTIONS · CRYO LABEL MAKER

Frequently asked

Which printers and label sheets does it work with?

Laser printers with laser cryogenic label sheets. You can pick a sheet or enter its geometry. It is not made for thermal label printers.

How do I line the labels up with my printer?

Print the calibration page on plain paper, hold it over a blank label sheet against the light, and enter how far to move the print. If the top-left lines up but the bottom-right doesn't, fix the pitch under Sheet geometry instead.

Can I paste sample IDs from Excel or a CSV file?

Yes — paste one ID per line, or open a .csv file (the first column is used). The file is read on your computer and never uploaded.

What print settings should I use?

Set the scale to Actual size / 100%, not Fit to page, and feed each label sheet through the printer only once.
