Instructions for Making Stickers using Munbyn Thermal Printer
Using a laptop computer (or mobile device with the Munbyn Print App), right click on the PNG file you wish to print.
Select “Show more options” from the drop down menu.
Then select “Print”. A pop-up will appear: be sure to select the MUNBYN printer from the printer menu and adjust the media size to match the label sticker size you are using. In this case, I chose to keep the design smaller so I chose 2”x2” (51mmx51mm) size paper (instead of 3”x3”).
Print one copy as a test to ensure positioning is centered. If you find the design has printed askew, then you will need to adjust the “position adjustment”. It took me a few tries to get the right setting.
In order to do this, first click on the “options” button and then the “printer properties” button and head to the “page setup” tab. Depending on your test print, marginally adjust the horizontal and vertical positioning. The print again to confirm the placement is fixed.
Once the placement is perfected, adjust the number of copies you wish to print and then click on “print”. In fact, the thermal label printer can handle large quantities printing up to 72 labels per minute which will save you lots of time so you can keep creating.
Assembling Valentines Treat Bags
Remove the paper bag handles from the top of the bags.
Fold over about ⅓ of the top and crease. Using a hole punch, add two holes at the center of the folded bag through all layers.
Fill the bag with yummy treats such as wrapped chocolates, candies, caramels and lolli-pops.
Cut a piece of ribbon, approximately 8” long and thread it through the holes.
Tie the ribbon ends into a bow.
And lastly, add a heart shaped sticker with a printed Valentines phrase on to the bag to seal the opening.
