How to Print Meesho Labels on a Thermal Printer (Step by Step)

Step 1: Crop the label PDF

Meesho gives you labels on A4 pages. Open the Meesho label crop tool, drop the PDF in and download the cropped file. Each label comes out on its own 4×6 page with the invoice removed.

Step 2: Set up the printer once

1. Open Printers & scanners in Windows and choose your thermal printer.
2. Go to Printing preferences → Page setup and select or create a 4 × 6 in (101.6 × 152.4 mm) stock.
3. Set darkness/heat to a medium value – too dark makes barcodes bleed.
4. Run the printer’s calibration (press and hold the feed button on most TSC and TVS models) so it detects the label gap.

Setting up popular printers

• TSC TE244 / TE200: use the Seagull driver from TSC, create a 4.00 × 6.00 in stock under Page Setup, and run Auto Calibration from the printer utility.
• TVS LP 46 Neo / Lite: install the TVS driver, set paper to 4×6, then hold the feed button until the printer feeds two labels to calibrate.
• Zebra ZD220 / ZD230: in the ZDesigner driver set width 4 in and height 6 in, media type “Label with gaps”, print method direct thermal.
• Xprinter XP-420B / XP-470B: set paper size in the driver and use the Xprinter tool’s gap calibration.

Print a test before the full batch

Always print the first label alone and check three things: the label is centred, nothing is cut at the edges, and the barcode is dark and crisp. Scan the AWB barcode with any phone barcode app – if it reads, the courier scanner will too.

Once the test label is right, print the rest of the file. Keeping page numbers on in the footer lets you restart from the right label if the roll runs out halfway.

Step 3: Print with the right settings

In the browser print dialog choose your thermal printer, paper size 4×6, margins None and scale 100% or Actual size. Turn off “Fit to page” in Adobe Reader because it shrinks the barcode.

If labels drift down the roll, recalibrate the printer – the gap sensor has lost its position.
