# Printing

Inventory, location, and other screens now include an option to print barcodes as shown below.

In addition, a QR code and full label is rendered in the print modal as a preview.

### Printer requirements

Not all printers will work with ION's v1 implementation. We require printers to do be able to do 2 things:

1. Connect to the internet(wifi or ethernet)
2. Work with middleware named [**Zebra Browser Print**](https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads/software/printer-software/browser-print.html)**. This has to be downloaded** on each users computer to enable printing. ION communicates with this desktop application, which then in turn communicates with the printers.

#### Printers that work with ION

The Zebra brand Printers generally work with Zebra Browser Print and therefore ION. You should order one of those printers to print barcodes with ION.

## Troubleshooting

If you get an error message that looks like this:

<figure><img src="/files/FbBW04Xl2MC0Fci5vHWq" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

If means you have the "Use Print Server" button checked, but you don't have an API key set in your organizational settings. Please check that you meant to enable the print server feature, and either fill in the API key or uncheck the box.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://manual.firstresonance.io/features/barcode-labels/printing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
