Everything you need

A complete toolkit for designing, managing, and printing thermal labels

Visual Editor

Click fields directly on the label preview. Drag to reposition, resize boxes and shapes, delete elements. Real-time ZPL updates with every visual change.

Syntax-Highlighted Editor

Color-coded ZPL commands, parameters, and field data. Hover any command for documentation. Auto-render on paste with debounced typing preview.

Direct Printing

Print directly to Zebra printers via Striped Printer. Discover printers on your network, select your default, and print any label with one click.

Version History

Every generation and tweak is saved as a version. Restore any previous version, diff two versions side-by-side, or tweak from any point in history.

Mail Merge

Upload a CSV and use {{placeholders}} in your ZPL template. Preview each row live, then batch-print all rows in one job with full variable data tracking.

Image Embedding

Drop any PNG, JPEG, or PDF onto a label. Convert full images to ZPL, or embed sized graphics into existing labels with aspect-locked controls.

Share & Export

Generate share links with OpenGraph previews. Download labels as ZPL source, PNG image, or PDF. Anyone with a link can view, download, and print.

Print Analytics

Track every print job with full history. View impressions, success rates, and breakdowns by printer, label, and day. Export data as CSV for reporting.

AI-Assisted Generation

Describe what you need in plain English and get valid ZPL code. Useful for bootstrapping new labels or making quick adjustments without memorizing commands.

Undo / Redo

Full undo/redo history for every ZPL edit. Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z) with debounced change tracking.

ZPL Diff Viewer

Side-by-side visual comparison of any two label versions. LCS-based line diff highlights additions, deletions, and unchanged code.

Field Inspector

Click any element on the preview to inspect its ZPL properties. See position, font, size, and barcode parameters at a glance.

Full ZPL II support

Striped understands the complete ZPL II command set. Text, barcodes (Code 128, Code 39, QR, Data Matrix, EAN-13, UPC-A), graphic boxes, circles, ellipses, diagonal lines, images, and more.
