Printing name tags

Conferences and seminars often require on-site printing of name tags for participants. If you have previously set up a registration form in Fienta, you can use our mobile app to print participant details on various name tags.

You will need the following:

  • A compatible printer and labels.

  • Fienta's free mobile app.

  • Internet connection.

Printer and paper

The printer must support ZPL printing over HTTP. One suitable model is the Brady BBP12, which we can help you rent. This printer can print black-and-white text and basic shapes on different materials, such as plastic, thermal paper, or stickers. In our backend, you can enter the ZPL code that defines the name tag size and text placement.

If you want your event name tags to be colourful or have a unique design, you must pre-print the blanks in advance and add participant information in black-and-white at the venue.

Sample tags and printer:

Printing

Connect the printer to the internet using a LAN cable, and connect the Fienta mobile app to the Wi-Fi provided by the same network device.

You can use our mobile app to search for attendees by name or scan their ticket QR codes. A button for printing the name tag will then appear in the app:
