DesignShop can generate Barcode Labels (not QR Code Labels) that can be read by Melco SUMMIT as well as add-on Barcode Scanners installed on a PC/computer. Here are the instructions (including the necessary True-Type Font file):
- Download the font file: 3OF9_NEW.TTF
- Double-Click that font file to open it.
- Click the Install button at the top of the screen.
- Close the font installation window.
- Launch DesignShop 12.
- Within DesignShop, click Tools >> Hoop Setup... to open Hoop Manager
- Click Customize Hoop List and select the hoops that you would like barcodes for. Click OK.
- Click Apply and OK to close Hoop Manager.
- Click: Tools >> Options >> Barcode Options.
- Check the Enable option in the Barcode Reader box.
- In the Print Options box, click Browse and select 3 of 9 Barcode as the Barcode Font.
- Check the Print Hoops option.
- Use the Print button in that box to print the barcodes for the selected hoops.
