500 million characters to the inch! The practical density will, of course, be limited by the
resolution of the printing and reading technology used.
Q: I tried to print using your shipping labels. Why won’t the postal code print?
A:
You are using 6.x software. The 6.3 software has now given an option to print the barcode with
just the 5 digits.
The USPS has certain guidelines as to what the postal code must have. For the POSTNET
Barcode to print, you must enter the whole zip code + the 4 digit postal code. You can look up
the full zip code from:

The Zip + 4 will help expedite the mail through faster sorting.
Q: Why won’t the postal code print?
A:
You are using 6.x software. USPS now requires zip + 4 to expedite mail at the processing
centers. To print the PostNet barcode, zip+4 must be used. The 6.6 software has now given
an option to print the barcode with just the 5 digits
Q: I can’t see my barcodes. Why?
A:
The size of the barcode box may need to be enlarged for the barcode to be visible.
Q: I am attempting to create a label using a barcode, the barcode looks scrambled. What is
wrong?
A: The software needs a printer selected to determine what DPI the barcode should be rendered
at. Go to pull down “Label” menu and go to “Printer Set-up” select the printer that is
connected to your computer.
Q: The 2D bar codes won’t fit in the label, how do I make it fit?
A: The barcode symbologies are created with standards that cannot be altered. The standard
specifies the sizes for the dots and the lines used for the different symbologies. If the barcode
still doesn’t fit after making the box smaller or bigger, then the chosen barcode symbology
might require a bigger label size. Try a larger label template, perhaps the SLRSLP.
Q: My graphics appear in inverted, why is this happening?
A: In 6.0.x this might have worked one way. In 6.0.7 this works with a new modern imaging
library. Some graphics files are created using a transparent background with an alpha
channel (semi transparent). When importing that graphic into the SLP software, it rounded
the transparent background down to black, not white. If you want to continue to use that
graphic, you will need to change the background from black to white. This is resolved in the
v6.2 version and higher, with more features an better graphics adjustment.
Q: The text on the label is blurred, how do I print "sharp text" with my SLP 450?
A:
You can adjust the properties of the print in Labels > Properties > Settings tab, and adjust the
darkness. This will also alter the print speeds.
