Does anyone build UPC labels for their clients? If so what software are you using?

Not sure how big of a scale and what equipment you are using and whatnot but we use BarTender - https://www.seagullscientific.com/ for some of our own labeling.

We use Zebra software, we have a GX3430T printer.  We buy the labels that we need from Amazon.  It's super fast but a pain in the ass to install.  Totally worth it

We put barcodes on shirts that go in large grocery stores. We have to get them from GS1 so they are unique. Once we create them, we use the DYMO LabelWriter 450 to print them. We add product and pricing information in their software before we print.

If you don't need unique barcodes or can use ones that are no longer in use, you can buy them really inexpensively from online vendors.

We use  Corel  and print sheets, mainly 4x8 labels on a A4 page.
