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. 

Choosing a file to print.

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”).

Adjusting size for printer.

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. 

Choosing printer properties before printing.

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.

  1. I love the template “Made With Love” and would have so much fun with the printer! My granddaughters would also enjoy it because when I visit them or they visit me, some of their first words are “Grandma, what crafts are we doing?!”.
