      I recently started using Snipe-IT (hosted version) and am wondering how people are printing their asset tags.

      Are you out-sourcing printing or do you print them yourselves. I would imagine if you outsource, you wouldn't be able to add device-specific info. Does that even matter if the QR code links to the asset in your management system?

        A rule for tagging things is that you don't want device info on the tags. That's bad for data integrity.

          Is anyone recommending tag printing services or printers? What kind of tag would you use?

              @tim_g Thanks but I mean, physically printing the tags that you attach to devices, not the syntax.

                        Zebra is pretty popular for label printing.

                          Yeah im pretty sure that's it. We use Dymos too and I know it's not those so it has to be Zebra.

                              I'm using a basic label printer and just printing off the asset tag. We also don't need anything special either. . . so.
