Every inventory item gets a printed barcode label. The label sticks to the physical equipment and is what your crew scans at Pick & Scan and Return & Inspect.

​
Label format

JingjaiOps prints minimalist labels that contain only what’s needed for scanning. Each label has:
  • Asset ID as human-readable text (e.g., CAM-001)
  • Barcode below the Asset ID (Code 128)
That’s it. No logos, no item names, no rate. The Asset ID is the link to everything else — when the crew scans the barcode, JingjaiOps shows the full item details on screen. This minimalist design is intentional:
  • Labels stay readable even when small
  • The same label format works for any item type
  • If an item changes (different lens fitted, repaired, renamed), the label is still valid because the Asset ID never changes

​
Hardware

JingjaiOps is tested with the Zebra ZD230T thermal transfer printer:
  • Prints sharp 203 dpi labels
  • Direct USB or Ethernet connection
  • Uses 1.25” × 1” thermal transfer labels
  • Sold widely in Thailand
Other Zebra ZPL-compatible printers will also work. The output is generated as a printable PDF, so any printer that handles 1.25” × 1” labels can be used in a pinch.

​
Label size

The default label size is 1.25” × 1” (32mm × 25mm). This fits most equipment — camera bodies, lens barrels, light fixtures, batteries, cases. If you need larger labels for big equipment, JingjaiOps also supports 2” × 1” and 3” × 1” sizes. Set the size on a per-print basis when you click Print Label.

​
Printing a label

​
Single label

1

Open the item

From the Inventory list.
2

Click 'Print Label'

Top right of the item detail.
3

Choose label size

Defaults to 1.25” × 1”.
4

Send to printer

The label PDF opens. Send to the Zebra printer like any other print job.

​
Bulk printing

For new shipments where you need to print 50+ labels:
1

Open the inventory list

Filter to the items you just added (e.g., today’s date).
2

Select multiple

Tick checkboxes next to the items.
3

Click 'Print Selected Labels'

A multi-page PDF opens, one label per page.
4

Send to printer

Print all pages. Labels print one after the other.

​
Scanning the labels

Any USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner that emulates a keyboard works. Recommended scanners:
  • Zebra DS2208 — entry-level USB scanner, very reliable
  • Zebra DS3678 — heavy-duty, Bluetooth, holds up in a warehouse
  • Honeywell Voyager 1450g — affordable USB option
You don’t need a special “JingjaiOps scanner” — these scanners work because they type the scanned text into whatever field has focus, then press Enter.

​
Replacing a damaged label

If a label gets torn, faded, or unreadable:
1

Open the item

Find the item in inventory by name or serial number.
2

Click 'Reprint Label'

Same as Print Label — produces a fresh label with the same Asset ID.
3

Stick the new label

Remove the old one and apply the replacement.
The Asset ID and barcode value are the same — old scan history continues to work without interruption.

​
Label placement tips

  • Cameras and lenses: stick on the side or bottom, away from screens and rotating rings.
  • Cases: outside on a flat surface, ideally near the latch so it’s visible when stacked.
  • Cables and small accessories: wrap a label around with clear tape, or use a hang tag.
  • Lights: on the body or stand mount, away from heat-prone areas.
For items that get a lot of contact (frequent in-and-out), use a clear protective overlay on top of the label to extend its life. JingjaiOps doesn’t sell these — any 38mm × 28mm clear label sticker works.
When you receive new gear, label everything before adding it to inventory in JingjaiOps. The first time you forget is the first time something goes out without a label and gets lost.
